A machine learning method based on artificial neural networks in which several layers of processing are used to extract increasingly detailed insights from data.

A machine learning method in which two neural networks work together to generate new, synthetic data that resembles real data produced by humans.

A branch of artificial intelligence focused on improving the ability of computers to analyse, understand, and utilise human language.

A branch of artificial intelligence focused on enabling computers to extract meaningful information from digital images or videos.

A data analysis method that uses machine learning to automatically identify patterns, trends, or similarities in data.

A computerised system consisting of multiple software components (or ‘agents’) that interact to solve problems beyond their individual capacity.

A term used to describe the billions of physical devices around the world – from laptops to smart alarms – that are connected to the internet and exchanging data.
