It can perform more complex actions than traditional machine learning models.
Layers are small systems dedicated to specific types of tasks.
Deep learning systems have at least three layers, but usually more (many have 100+ layers).

At a minimum, deep learning systems have three layers: input, processing, and output.
System Needs
Running a system with so many layers requires significant computing power.
It also requires enormous data sets to train the deep learning system on its tasks.
Like some machine learning models, deep learning is trained using labeled, structured data.
After initial training, deep learning systems tend to require less human intervention than ML models.
Suppose artificial intelligence is the broadest category for this kind of computing.
As a result, these systems often help power AI.
Deep learning tech can perform more functions than machine learning.
It also requires significantly more computer processing power since its functions are still being developed and refined.
ML models can be trained to detect patterns or recognize objects.
The ability to take action is another differentiator.
An ML model could analyze historical stock performance and make recommendations to a stockbroker.
An epoch is a process that uses all of an algorithm’s training data at once.
