Deep learning is understood as a form of machine learning which imitates how humans acquire knowledge. It first gained a lot of attention as it has enabled machines to approach and tackle cognitive tasks at which humans excel in a human-like fashion - including object recognition, speech processing, and cognitive planning. More recently, cognitive scientists have turned to deep learning models to study human cognition and its neural underpinnings.
This Collections welcomes research from the areas of Psychology, Neuroscience or other Cognitive Sciences, using deep learning approaches to study cognitive phenomena.
