Subsequently, a comparison was made between their accuracy percentages where the best results were 95.33% for the convolutional neural network and 93.33% for the fully connected in the recognition of 12 colors and 93.67 and 35.23% for 18 colors, respectively. Finally, the best network is selected to design a video recognition application and the results are presented.
