"In this chapter, we describe how to use deep learning to solve applications in computer vision, speech recognition, natural language processing, and other application areas of commercial interest. We begin by discussing the large scale neural network implementations required for most serious AI applications. Next, we review several specific application areas that deep learning has been used to solve. While one goal of deep learning is to design algorithms that are capable of solving a broad variety of tasks, so far some degree of specialization is needed. For example, vision tasks require processing a large number of input features (pixels) per example. Language tasks require modeling a large number of possible values (words in the vocabulary) per input feature."
