What Does DNN Mean?

homeAI termsDNN

The Quick Answer

DNN means "Deep Neural Network."

More Observations...

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are computer systems with many layers that help them learn and recognize complex patterns. They are used in tasks like understanding speech and images, and are a powerful tool in modern artificial intelligence (AI).

In Detail

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are are a type of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) with multiple layers between the input and output layers. These intermediate or "hidden" layers enable the network to learn complex patterns and represent intricate functions. DNNs are used in various applications such as speech recognition, image classification, and natural language processing. The depth of the network allows for the extraction of hierarchical features, where initial layers learn simple patterns and subsequent layers build upon them to understand more complex structures. Training DNNs requires significant computational resources and careful tuning, but their ability to model complexity makes them a powerful tool in modern AI.
