Experts on deep learning
Deep learning is a subfield of machine learning and artificial intelligence that attempts to mimic the way the human brain obtains knowledge. Deep learning systems use a multilayered set of algorithms, known as a neural network, to extract features from data and build up an increasingly accurate model. WPI experts on deep learning can speak to its applications in areas as diverse as health-related apps, educational technology, fairness in artificial intelligence, and medical imaging.
