Figure 1 Artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning. Artificial intelligence is a field of applied computer science that mimics human cognition to complete a task. Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence that manually extract features from input data to create a model that categorizes the object. Neural network is a set of machine-based learning algorithms to learn labeled datasets and perform classification tasks, and it comprises an input layer, a hidden layer of interconnected nodes, and an output layer. Deep learning is a machine learning technique that uses neural network architectures, and the term “deep” refers to the number of hidden layers (more than three) in the neural network.
