Learning Bayesian Models with R

Summary

In this chapter, we learned about an important class of machine learning model, namely neural networks, and their Bayesian implementation. These models are inspired by the architecture of the human brain and they continue to be an area of active research and development. We also learned one of the latest advances in neural networks that is called deep learning. It can be used to solve many problems such as computer vision and natural language processing that involves highly cognitive elements. The artificial intelligent systems using deep learning were able to achieve accuracies comparable to human intelligence in tasks such as speech recognition and image classification. With this chapter, we have covered important classes of Bayesian ...
