Deep learning

Definition and delimitation

Deep learning is a sub-area of machine learning that is characterized by the use of particularly deep neural networks. While traditional machine learning often works with manually defined features, deep learning automatically learns complex features from the raw data. The deeper the network, the more complex the correlations it can capture.

Areas of application for deep learning

Deep learning is used in particular in image and speech recognition, autonomous driving and medical image analysis. The ability to learn directly from unstructured data makes it a valuable tool for analyzing big data. Companies benefit from deep learning through more precise forecasts and the automation of complex tasks.
