More than 50 years ago, Marvin Minsky made the first attempt to mimic the human brain, triggering further research into computers’ ability to process information to make intelligent decisions. However, the mission proved incredibly complex. It is only from 2010 onward that there was acceleration in deep learning techniques. In 2012, Google Brain built a neural network of 16,000 computer processors using a deep learning algorithm. This was a step-change in brain simulation.
1959 – The first digital image scanner was invented by transforming images into grids of numbers.
1963 – Larry Roberts, the father of CV, described the process of deriving 3D info about solid objects from 2D photographs.
1966 – Marvin Minksy instructed a graduate student to connect a camera to a computer and have it described what it sees.
1980 – Kunihiko Fukushima built the ‘neocognitron’, the precursor of modern Convolutional Neural Networks.
1991-93 – Multiplex recording devices were introduced, together with cover video surveillance for ATM machines.
2001 – Two researchers at MIT introduced the first face detection framework (Viola-Jones) that works in real-time.
2009 – Google started testing robot cars on roads.
2010 – Google released Goggles, an image recognition app for searches based on pictures taken by mobile devices.
2010 – To help tag photos, Facebook began using facial recognition.
2011 – Facial recognition was used to help confirm the identity of Osama bin Laden after he is killed in a US raid.
2012 – Google Brain’s neural network recognized pictures of cats using a deep learning algorithm.
2015 – Google launched open-source Machine learning-system TensorFlow.
2016 – Google DeepMind’s AlphaGo algorithm beat the world Go champion.
2017 – Waymo sued Uber for allegedly stealing trade secrets.
2017 – Apple released the iPhone X in 2017, advertising face recognition as one of its primary new features.
