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

  • Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs): Mimic the human brain's ability to learn, remember, and make decisions.
  • Layers: The structure of the neural network, including input, hidden, and output layers.
  • Neurons: The basic building blocks of the neural network, which process information.

Applications

Deep learning has been applied in various fields, including:

  • Image Recognition: Identifying objects, faces, and scenes in images.
  • Natural Language Processing (NLP): Understanding and generating human language.
  • Recommender Systems: Personalizing recommendations for users.
  • Medical Diagnosis: Analyzing medical images for disease detection.
