Summary
Computer vision is built on the analysis and manipulation of numeric pixel values in images. Machine learning models are trained using a large volume of images to enable common computer vision scenarios, such as image classification, object detection, automated image tagging, optical character recognition, and others
While you can create your own machine learning models for computer vision, the Azure AI Vision service provides many pretrained capabilities that you can use to analyze images, including generating a descriptive caption, extracting relevant tags, identifying objects, and others.
Tip
You can find out more about using the Azure AI Vision service in the service documentation.
