Learn about the Nature and Applications for Artificial Intelligence, Deep Learning and Machine Learning

AI, machine learning, and deep learning are related but they are not identical.

Machine Learning is a science concerned with developing computer programs that automatically improve with experience, in other words it is the science of learning, where different techniques can be applied.  With machine learning, it is possible to systematically understand what model performs better and under what circumstances.

Deep learning is a technique or a subset of machine learning derived from artificial neural networks. It is a technique that allows computational models of multiple processing layers to learn representations of data with multiple levels of abstraction. This computational "intelligence" has enabled applications in the health industry for example, that are as efficient as those conducted by a trained physician. It is similarly applied in agriculture, medicine, laboratory, physics, and so on. There are two pre-requisites for deep learning: 

  • High throughput data (large amount of data, aka Big Data)
  • Massive Computing Power and memory (more specifically computer graphics processing unit (GPU), central processing unit (CPU), Random-access memory (RAM)).  
Artificial Intelligence is the capacity of a computer or computer operated equipment to carry out tasks that would normally or otherwise be carried out by a human.

 

Why Study this Course?

Artificial intelligence is increasingly being used in the world - at work, home and play. Whether you are developing it or using it, and in whatever context, you are likely to be increasingly encountering A.I.

This course provides a fundamental understanding of A.I., it's potential and it's application. It will develop a deeper and more realistic understanding, and in doing so, provide a foundation tor being better at using or working with A.I.

Some may study it to improve efficiencies at work, others as professional development to broaden or deepen their learning of technology.
