Data Science and Machine Learning (Theory and Projects) A to Z - Deep Neural Network Architecture: Convolution Revisited

The video tutorial explains the concept of convolution in image processing using a 4x4 image and a 3x3 filter. It details the convolution process, including the calculation of dot products and handling of boundaries with paddings. The tutorial also compares convolution with filtering, highlighting the need to flip the mask in convolution, a concept rooted in electrical engineering. The video concludes by discussing the interchangeability of the terms convolution and filtering in practical applications.
