Building Online Communities Exploring Deep Learning

One of the most important takeways from Davos that quickly became widely spread news, was that the world was about to enter the fourth industrial revolution, resulting from a convergence of a number of big technology changes (autonomous vehicles, sensors, biotechnology, 3D printing, robotics, artificial intelligence). One of the most important technological disruption taking us fast to that extraordinary moment is Deep learning. Deep learning is a branch of machine learning based on a set of algorithms that attempt to model high-level abstractions in data by using multiple processing layers, with complex structures or otherwise, composed of multiple non-linear transformations. Making an analogy with the way the brain works, deep-learning software tries to imitate what happens in our brains, more exactly in the layers of neurons in the neocortex, where thinking takes place. Ultimately deep learning software aims to recognize patterns in digital representations of sounds, images, and other data.
