Deep learning is giving industry leaders a boost that puts them head and shoulders above the competition. In order to meet this raised bar, companies must stay on the "bleeding edge" of machine learning techniques. In this video, Matt Coatney explains how neural networks can handle heightened levels of abstraction to identify even partially obscured facial features. Executives, managers, and entrepreneurs from either technical or business backgrounds will walk away with a better understanding of recent advances in deep learning and how they can be leveraged in the modern digital economy. Beyond personal photos, innovators can apply the techniques outlined in this video to an array of scenarios, from satellite imagery to warehouse and supply chain management.
