Lyrics

[Verse 1]
From LeNet's simple seven layers bright
Through AlexNet's dropout revolution
VGG stacked deeper, pixel sight
ResNet's shortcuts solved degradation
Skip connections jumping past the blocks
EfficientNet scaled with compound locks

[Chorus]
Convolve and pool, extract the features
Kernels sliding, learning creatures
Transfer what you've learned before
Fine-tune layers, unlock the door
CNN, CNN, vision's blueprint
Attention shows you what's important

[Verse 2]
YOLO sees it all in single pass
Bounding boxes, confidence in hand
Faster R-CNN, two-stage class
Proposals refined across the land
U-Net bridges encoder to decode
Mask R-CNN paints each pixel's code

[Chorus]
Convolve and pool, extract the features
Kernels sliding, learning creatures
Transfer what you've learned before
Fine-tune layers, unlock the door
CNN, CNN, vision's blueprint
Attention shows you what's important

[Bridge]
PyTorch loads the pretrained ResNet weights
Freeze the backbone, train the head
Data augmentation duplicates
Rotation, cropping, colors spread
Vision Transformers patch and embed
Attention matrices, convolution's thread

[Verse 3]
Transfer learning saves the day
ImageNet knowledge, weights intact
Fine-tune gently, learning rate decay
Shallow layers frozen, deep ones cracked
DINOv2 learns without labels clean
Self-supervised vision, unseen machine

[Chorus]
Convolve and pool, extract the features
Kernels sliding, learning creatures
Transfer what you've learned before
Fine-tune layers, unlock the door
CNN, CNN, vision's blueprint
Attention shows you what's important

[Outro]
From classical nets to transformers new
Computer vision's evolution grew
Each architecture builds upon the last
Neural networks see the future fast
