Machine learning is a general technique for finding suitable parameters or functions to classify input data from large amounts of training data. Many methodologies for implementing machine learning, such as support vector machines, decision trees or neural networks, have been advocated so far. Deep learning is one of the machine learning techniques dealing with the training of multi-layer artificial neural networks. In recent years, multi-layer neural networks, especially convolutional neural networks, have achieved impressive results in many types of image classifications in many scientific fields.
