          2. This lead to the use of this term
        3. To fully understand its meaning it's essential to first know a little bit about Neural Networks
          1. This a collection of algorithms designed to process data and produce an output with the least amount of error
          2. They are called that because the design of the nodes inputs and outputs which slighly resemble that of neuron in the human brain
        4. The key differentiator between machine learning and deep learning is the number of layers of nodes that the input data passes through
          1. In the past it was limited
    6. For example
      1. If an algorithm is given a dataset of images of cats and dogs, the algorithm can learn to identify the features that distinguish each type of animal
