Pattern Recognition with Deep Learning

Abstract

Neural nets fall into the Learning category of our taxonomy. In this chapter, we will expand our neural net toolbox with convolution and pooling layers. A general neural net is shown in Figure 10.1. This is a “deep learning” neural net because it has multiple internal layers. Each layer may have a distinct function and form. In the previous chapter, our multi-layer network had multiple layers, but they were all functionally similar and fully connected.
