Examples of different formats of data in CNN

For CNNs, the data used usually has several channels (single channel or multichannel)  with different dimensionalities (1-D, 2-D, or 3-D). Each of these channels represent an observation of a different quantity at some point in space or time.

Data encompasses facts, figures, or information gathered for analysis, reference, or computation. It can be qualitative or quantitative and serves as the foundation for reasoning, discussion, or calculation across fields like scientific research, business, and technology. Data exists in diverse forms, including numbers, text, images, or sounds, and is processed to extract meaningful insights. In computing, data is the foundational element; all interactions revolve around reading, modifying, and creating it. Fundamentally, all computer data is stored as uniform sequences of bits, making it inherently similar regardless of its perceived form.

Structured data is comprised of clearly defined data types whose pattern makes them easily searchable. Data may be human or machine generated as long as the data is created within an RDBMS structure. This format is eminently searchable both with human generated queries and via algorithms using type of data and field names, such as alphabetical or numeric, currency or date.

Structured Data

Unstructured data either does not have a pre-defined data model or is not organized in a pre-defined manner. It has internal structure but is not structured via pre-defined data models or schema. Unstructured data may be textual or non-textual, and human- or machine-generated. It may also be stored within a non-relational database like NoSQL.

Data Types in CNN

Raw data, also referred to as unanalyzed data, is the initial information collected during a research study before any organization, coding, or cleaning has occurred. In psychological research, this data can take several different forms, such as completed paper-and-pencil questionnaires, digital files containing numbers or text, video recordings, or written observational notes.
