Deep learning is a subset of machine learning that structures algorithms in layers to create an "artificial neural network" that can learn and make intelligent decisions on its own.

Key Concepts

  • Neural Networks: Deep learning uses neural networks, which are inspired by the human brain's structure and function.
  • Layers: Neural networks consist of layers, including input, hidden, and output layers.
  • Activation Functions: These functions help determine whether a neuron should be activated or not.
  • Backpropagation: This is the process of adjusting the weights of the neurons to improve the accuracy of the model.

Applications

  • Image Recognition: Deep learning models can recognize objects in images, such as identifying a cat in a photo.
  • Speech Recognition: These models can convert spoken words into written text.
  • Natural Language Processing: Deep learning is used to understand and generate human language.
