Deep learning is a recent topic within machine learning and artificial intelligence. In deep learning, we have models of large and complex artificial neural networks that imitate how the human brain processes information in presence of large amounts of data. Today deep learning is one of the most exciting and innovative parts of machine learning. When the amount of data increases, and the problems become more complex, we are facing new challenges; and this is when we need deep learning. The subject is under strong development and will be important for advanced products and services today and in the future.
