A Development Methodology for Deep Learning – Intuition Machine Blog

The practice of software development has created development methodologies such agile development and lean methodology to tackle the complexity of development with the objective of improving the quality and efficiency of software creation. Although Deep Learning is built from software it is a different kind of software and therefore a different kind of methodology is needed. Deep Learning differs most from traditional software development in that a substantial portion of the process involves the machine learning how to achieve objectives. The developer is not completely out of the equation, but is working in concert to tweak the Deep Learning algorithm. Deep Learning is sufficiently rich and complex a subject that a process model or methodology is required to guide a developer.
