In this paper, “A fast learning […]

Deep Learning is one the last iterations on the evolution of Machine Learning. One evolution that started with something as simple as Linear Regression, and despite all the difficulties and winters that grassed for, it has been an area whose advances have generated a tsunami that has waves that reached into the most varied fields […]
