The fundamental idea of Bayesian inference is to become "less wrong" with more data. The process is straightforward: we have an initial belief, known as a prior, which we update as we gain additional information.
Automatic feature engineering using Generative Adversarial Networks
by Hamaad Shah – 8 min read
The purpose of deep learning is to learn a representation of high dimensional and noisy data using a sequence of differentiable functions, i.e., geometric transformations, that can perhaps be used for supervised learning tasks among other tasks.
