Deep Learning

Deep learning (DL) is a subset of machine learning, with the difference that DL algorithms can automatically learn representations from data such as images, video, or text, without introducing human domain knowledge

The word "deep" in deep learning represents the many layers of algorithms, or neural networks, that are used to recognize patterns in data.
