encoder
Data transformation tool
An encoder is a device or program that converts information from one format to another, typically for transmission, storage, or compression.
Video encoders convert raw footage into streamable formats; rotary encoders translate mechanical position into electrical signals.
In machine learning, an encoder transforms input data into a compact representation that captures essential features: The encoder processes the image before the decoder generates a caption.
