Deep Learning

Deep Learning is a specialized branch of machine learning that uses multi-layered neural networks to model complex patterns in data. It has enabled breakthroughs in computer vision, natural language processing, and generative AI, powering technologies like self-driving cars and voice assistants.

Key Subtopics

• Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs): Specialized for image and video analysis.
• Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs): Designed for sequential data like text and time series.
• Transformers: State-of-the-art models for language and vision tasks.
• Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs): For generating realistic images, audio, and more.
• Self-Attention Mechanisms: Enabling models to focus on relevant parts of input data.

Recent Advances
