Capsule Networks (CapsNets) in a Nutshell

Introduced by deep learning pioneer Geoffrey Hinton in 2017, CapsNets are designed to address traditional Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) limitations in preserving spatial hierarchies between features. A capsule outputs a vector rather than a scalar, where the magnitude represents the probability of a feature's existence and the orientation captures details like pose and lighting. Unlike CNNs with max-pooling, CapsNets use dynamic routing where capsules 'vote' based on agreement on which higher-level capsules to forward data to. They offer robustness to different object poses and orientations and might resist adversarial attacks better. However, they're computationally demanding and haven't consistently outperformed CNNs. Dive into CapsNets at any AI gathering, and you're bound to spark interest!
