R-CNN (Region-Based Convolutional Neural Networks) is a pioneering framework in the field of object detection that combines region proposal algorithms with deep learning-based feature extraction. It operates by first generating candidate regions that might contain objects, then applying a convolutional neural network to classify and refine these proposals, ultimately enabling accurate localization and identification of objects within images. R-CNN has significantly contributed to advancements in computer vision tasks, particularly in visual recognition and detection systems.
