Deep learning ‘exploding’ on back of data deluge

After years of slowly chugging away, deep learning developments are now gaining pace rapidly, and promise to revolutionise the transportation industry. An advanced form of artificial intelligence (AI), deep learning allows vehicles to not only react to the environment around them but to learn from it over time.

In its recently published report 'I see. I think. I drive. (I learn)', KPMG pegs deep learning as a critical enabler of self-driving vehicles. Without it, working out the billions of permutations involved in programming any self-driving road journey would be impractical, if not impossible.
