Deep learning, a subfield of machine learning, has emerged as one of the most revolutionary technologies of the last decade. It is based on artificial neural networks that aim to emulate the functioning of the human brain to process data and make autonomous decisions. 

Currently, deep learning is driving significant advancements across numerous sectors. Tech companies use this technology to personalize user experiences, optimize processes, and predict market trends with unprecedented accuracy. As digitalization progresses and the amount of data generated globally continues to grow, deep learning will become even more crucial. Companies that master this technology will be better positioned to lead their industries. Moreover, deep learning will play a central role in the development of artificial intelligence, which has the potential to radically transform the economy and society. 

Mastering this tool will be essential for those who want to thrive in an increasingly competitive and innovation-driven business environment. With this in mind, IE University Publishing has launched a new multimedia tutorial, Deep Learning, in collaboration with Professor Konstantina Valogianni. This educational resource introduces students to the concept of deep learning and contextualizes it in relation to its predecessor, Artificial Neural Networks. 

The tutorial, composed of seven sections, guides students through the fundamentals of deep learning, how it works, the challenges it poses during implementation, and the infrastructure needed to execute it. Additionally, it offers practical examples of real-world applications in the business sector. 

This interactive technical note takes place in the imaginary world of "DeepLearnia," where students, accompanied by DILI, a virtual assistant, embark on a journey through the key aspects of deep learning. The tutorial’s engaging graphics and design immerse students in this fictional setting, enhancing their attention and engagement. 

Deep Learning is now available in our catalog. To learn more about this multimedia material, we invite you to watch the trailer below: 

Additionally, for those just starting in the field of machine learning, the IE University Publishing catalog also offers a multimedia tutorial titled Machine Learning, which serves as an excellent introduction to deep learning.
