DARPA’s LwLL developing more efficient machine learning by massively reducing the amount of labeled data needed to train accurate models

Deep learning is a type of machine learning in which a model learns to perform classification tasks directly from images, text, or sound. Deep learning is usually implemented using a neural network architecture. Deep learning architectures such as deep neural networks, deep belief networks, recurrent neural networks and convolutional neural …
