Summer 2018 Deep Learning Short Course Machine Perception and Cognitive Robotics

Deep Learning is a type of Artificial Intelligence where we give the computer the ability to learn, rather than tell it what to learn. Here at MPCR, we look at Deep Learning as a member of multiple fields, if not every field. AI has its roots in Psychology and Biology, and we strive to remain true to those origins when we consider Deep Learning as a Theory of the Brain. However, it is also highly computational and is an important tool for today's Data Scientists. Deep Learning has already begun to answer questions in fields such as Medicine, Biology, Chemistry, and Engineering, and it is gaining momentum.
