Convolutional and Recurrent Networks

The human brain is often the main inspiration and comparison we make when building AI and is something deep learning researchers often look to for inspiration or reassurance. By studying the brain and its parts in more detail, we often discover neural sub-processes. An example of a neural sub-process would be our visual cortex, the area or region of our brain responsible for vision. We now understand that this area of our brain is wired differently and responds differently to input. This just so happens to be analogous to analog what we have found in our previous attempts at using neural networks to classify images. Now, the human brain has many sub-processes all with specific mapped areas in the brain (sight, hearing, smell, speech, taste, touch, and memory/temporal), but in this chapter, we will look at how we model just sight and memory...
