Part 3: Deep Learning Revolution
What is Deep Learning?
Deep Learning is a specialized subset of machine learning that uses artificial neural networks with
multiple layers (hence "deep") to model and understand complex patterns in data.
Key Characteristics:

6. Multiple layers (typically 3+ hidden layers)
Automatic feature extraction from raw data
Requires large amounts of data and computational power
Excellent at handling unstructured data (images, text, audio)
Neural Network Architecture
Basic Components:
Input Layer
Receives raw data (pixels of image, words in text, sensor readings)
Each input represents one feature or data point
No processing occurs here, just data entry
Hidden Layers
Where the "magic" happens - pattern recognition and feature extraction
Each layer builds upon previous layer's learning
Early layers detect simple patterns, deeper layers detect complex ones
Example in image recognition: edges → shapes → objects → scenes
Output Layer
Produces final prediction or classification
Number of neurons matches number of possible outcomes
For binary classification: 1 neuron (yes/no)
For multi-class: multiple neurons (cat/dog/bird)
Learning Process (Backpropagation)
Network makes prediction
Compares prediction to actual answer
Calculates error and adjusts weights throughout network
Repeats millions of times until accuracy improves
