Explainable Deep Learning: A Field Guide for the Uninitiated
Lost me at the first sentence.> Deep neural network (DNN) is an indispensable machine learning tool for achieving human-level performance on many learning tasks.Not to be pedantic, but words matter. Is anyone actually claiming that deep learning achieves true “human-level performance” on any real world open-ended learning task?Even the most state of the art computer vision/object classification algorithms still don’t generalize to weird input, like familiar objects presented at odd angles.I get that the author is trying to write something motivating and inspirational, but it feels like claiming “near” or “quasi”-human performance, with disclaimers, would be a more intellectually honest way to introduce the subject.
