🔍 Feature Extraction
Convolutional and pooling layers work together to extract hierarchical features from input images. Early layers detect edges and textures, while deeper layers recognize complex patterns and objects.
🎯 Classification Head
Fully connected layers at the end use extracted features to make final predictions. They combine spatial information into class probabilities or regression outputs.
🏗️ Hierarchical Learning
CNNs learn representations at multiple levels of abstraction. Each layer builds upon the previous layer's features to capture increasingly complex patterns.
