FROM ORIGINS TO INNOVATIONS: AI'S ROLE AND THE COST IMPACT ON COMPUTER VISION

Summary/Abstract: The field of Computer Vision, a pivotal subdomain of Artificial Intelligence (AI), has seen extraordinary advancements since its emergence in the 1960s. This paper examines the historical development of Computer Vision technologies, tracing the journey from early foundational models, such as Frank Rosenblatt’s Perceptron, to contemporary breakthroughs driven by Deep Learning. Key milestones are explored, including the development of algorithms like Scale-Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT), Viola-Jones for face detection, and Eigenfaces, which paved the way for modern solutions such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), YOLO and FaceNet. The paper highlights the evolution of face detection and recognition techniques, contrasting traditional methods with the transformative capabilities of Deep Learning-driven approaches. Additionally, we analyze the growing computational demands of modern algorithms, discussing the trade-offs between accuracy and efficiency and their implications for practical applications. This study underscores the rapid progression of Computer Vision, its challenges, and its role as a cornerstone in shaping the future of Artificial Intelligence.
