Deep Learning Introduction

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.

What is Deep Learning?

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 utilizes neural networks, which are inspired by the human brain's ability to learn and recognize patterns.
Layers: Neural networks consist of layers, including input, hidden, and output layers.
Weights and Biases: Each neuron in a layer has weights and biases that determine the strength of its connections to other neurons.
Activation Functions: Activation functions help determine whether a neuron should be activated or not.

Applications

Deep learning has been applied to various fields, including:

Image Recognition: Identifying objects and patterns in images, such as facial recognition and medical imaging.
Natural Language Processing (NLP): Understanding and generating human language, such as machine translation and sentiment analysis.
Speech Recognition: Transcribing spoken words into written text, such as voice assistants and transcription services.
Autonomous Vehicles: Enabling vehicles to navigate and make decisions on their own.
