# Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) ![Source: Towards Data Science](https://2327526407-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LvBP1svpACTB1R1x_U4%2F-LvHJ32JL_4hyT9PVdc0%2F-LvHSjfW_yCbwBPotco2%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=58215265-4ec2-484f-9721-5094fc0bd328) A Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), sometimes referred to as a ConvNet, is the most well-known image recognition and classification algorithm. CNNs were one of the key innovations that led to the deep neural network renaissance in computer vision, which is a subset of machine learning. A typical CNN consists of a combination of convolutional, pooling, and dense layers. ### Run a CNN sample project from the ML Showcase! {% embed url="" %}
