How Deep Learning Works:

1. Input Data: 1000s of images of two cancer types.

2. Multiple Layers:
- Initial: Detect basic features.
- Intermediate: Combine features for shapes and textures.
- Final: Determine probability of cancer type.

This approach enhances effectiveness!

What is Deep Learning?

Deep learning is an advanced subset of machine learning using neural networks to mimic how the brain works.

It excels at handling large, complex datasets and improves accuracy through multiple processing layers.

3.⁠ ⁠Reinforcement Learning: The machine learns through rewards and penalties (trial and error).

Example: A robot trained in a virtual environment for suturing, earning points for precise cuts and facing penalties for mistakes, refining its technique over time.

Machine learning, a subset of AI 🤖, analyses data 📷 to find patterns and make predictions. It includes supervised learning 📷.

There are different types of machine learning:🎯

2.⁠ ⁠Unsupervised Learning: The computer finds hidden patterns in input data without labelled responses.

Example: Analysing medical records of 1,000 patients to group them by similarities, helping identify risk factors for personalised care.
