U-Net — U-Net Image Segmentation Network

Fact

A CNN often used to split images into pixel-level parts.

In Plain Words

U-Net is like a fussy kid with a coloring book. It colors only the cat, not the couch.

It is common in medical scan work. Diffusion models also use it to clean noise and rebuild images step by step.
