The ability of autoencoders to reduce dimensionality and find patterns in data is a cornerstone of many modern AI applications.
— Fei-Fei Li
An autoencoder is a type of neural network that can perform tasks like dimensionality reduction, denoising, and anomaly detection. It consists of core components – encoder, latent space, and decoder. The purpose of the encoder is to compress the input into a compact and smaller representation called latent space or code. The decoder’s purpose is to reconstruct the original input using the latent representation. In that process, the autoencoder learns the important features of the input data. The learning objectives of this chapter are as ...
