What is deep learning and how it is improving the machine learning


While Machine Learning is a subset of Artificial Intelligence, Deep Learning is a specialized subset of Machine Learning.Deep Learning layers algorithms to create a Neural Network, an artificial replication of the structure and functionality of the brain, enabling AI systems to continuously learn on the job and improve the quality and accuracy of results. This is what enables these systems to learn from unstructured data such as photos, videos, and audio files.

Deep Learning, for example, enables natural language understanding capabilities of AI systems, and allows them to work out the context and intent of what is being conveyed. Deep learning algorithms do not directly map input to output. Instead, they rely on several layers of processing units. Each layer passes its output to the next layer, which processes it and passes it to the next. The many layers is why it’s called deep learning. When creating deep learning algorithms,developers and engineers configure the number of layers and the type of functions that connect the outputs of each layer to the inputs of the next. Then they train the model by providing it with lots of annotated examples.

For instance, you give a deep learning algorithm thousands of images and labels that correspond to the content of each image. The algorithm will run the those examples through its layered neural network, and adjust the weights of the variables in each layer of the neural network to be able to detect the common patterns that define the images with similar labels. Deep Learning fixes one of the major problems present in older generations of learning algorithms.

While the efficiency and performance of machine learning algorithms plateau as the datasets grow, deep learning algorithms continue to improve as they are fed more data. Deep Learning has proven to be very efficient at various tasks, including image captioning,voice recognition and transcription, facial recognition, medical imaging,and language translation. Deep Learning is also one of the main components of driverless cars.

What is Artificial Intelligence,its type and applications

AI is a part of Computer Science.AI is anything that makes machine more intelligent. AI is a technology which can not replace human intelligence but rather it can extend human capabilities.Now a days AI is most wanted and powerful technology.Every industry wants to have its AI system because it can process very large amount of data in less time. How does AI learn ? The intelligence which machine having is only provided by us.So basically we provide to machine  ability to examine and create machine learning models based on inputs and desired output and we do this based on supervised learning,unsupervised learning and reinforcement learning. Types of AI based on Strength Weak or Narrow AI- Narrow AI is that applied on specific domain.It can perform specific task but can not learn new things its own.It can only make decision based on programmed algorithms and trained data.For example AI powered based searches,virtual assistant,self driving cars,language translato...

ANN in depth

Artificial Neural Network Layers Artificial Neural network is typically organized in layers. Layers are being made up of many interconnected ‘nodes’ which contain an  ‘activation function’.  A neural network may contain the following 3 layers: a. Input layer The purpose of the input layer is to receive as input the values of the explanatory attributes for each observation. Usually, the number of input nodes in an input layer is equal to the number of explanatory variables. ‘input layer’ presents the patterns to the network, which communicates to one or more ‘hidden layers’. The nodes of the input layer are passive, meaning they do not change the data. They receive a single value on their input and duplicate the value to their many outputs. From the input layer, it duplicates each value and sent to all the hidden nodes. b. Hidden layer The  Hidden layers  apply given transformations to the input values inside the network. In this, incoming arcs that go...

5 machine learning applications

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is everywhere. Possibility is that you are using it in one way or the other and you don’t even know about it. One of the popular applications of AI is Machine Learning (ML), in which computers, software, and devices perform via cognition (very similar to human brain). Herein, we share few examples of machine learning that we use everyday and perhaps have no idea that they are driven by ML. 1. Virtual Personal Assistants Siri, Alexa, Google Now are some of the popular examples of virtual personal assistants. As the name suggests, they assist in finding information, when asked over voice. All you need to do is activate them and ask “What is my schedule for today?”, “What are the flights from Germany to London”, or similar questions. For answering, your personal assistant looks out for the information, recalls your related queries, or send a command to other resources (like phone apps) to collect info. You can even instruct assistants for certain tasks l...
