Java Deep Learning Essentials

Summary

In this chapter, you learned how techniques in the field of AI have evolved into deep learning. We now know that there were two booms in AI and that we are now in the third boom. Searching and traversing algorithms were developed in the first boom, such as DFS and BFS. Then, the study focused on how knowledge could be represented with symbols that a machine could easily understand in the second boom.

Although these booms had faded away, techniques developed during those times built up much useful knowledge of AI fields. The third boom spread out with machine learning algorithms in the beginning with those of pattern recognition and classification based on probabilistic statistical models. With machine learning, we've made great progress ...
