VGG

VGG is a convolutional neural network architecture known for its simplicity and deep architecture. Developed by the Visual Graphics Group at Oxford (hence VGG), it was a strong contender in the ImageNet Challenge.

VGG in Practice

What distinguishes VGG is its use of a series of convolutional layers with small receptive fields followed by max-pooling layers, repeated multiple times. This architecture has been influential in the development of deep learning for image recognition tasks, due to its effectiveness and simplicity.
