Table 2 Comparison of various DL algorithms.
Algorithm | Architecture | Strengths | Weaknesses | Use sases | Performance |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Input layer, one or more hidden layers, output layer. Fully connected | Versatile and flexible. Can model complex, non-linear relationships | Computationally expensive. Prone to overfitting. Black-box nature | General-purpose tasks like classification, regression, and clustering | High accuracy for small to medium datasets, but slow for large datasets | |
Multiple hidden layers between input and output. Fully connected | Hierarchical feature learning. State-of-the-art performance in many domains | Computationally expensive. Requires large datasets. Hard to interpret | Image recognition, NLP, speech recognition, and complex pattern recognition | State-of-the-art performance for large datasets, but resource intensive | |
Convolutional layers, pooling layers, fully connected layers. Local connectivity | Excellent for spatial data (e.g., images). Reduces parameters via weight sharing | Computationally expensive. Requires large datasets. Limited to grid-like data | Image classification, object detection, video analysis, and medical imaging | State-of-the-art performance for image and video data | |
Recurrent connections with loops. Hidden state to capture temporal dependencies | Handles sequential data. Models temporal dependencies effectively | Suffers from vanishing/exploding gradients. Computationally expensive. Computationally expensive | Time-series forecasting, NLP, speech recognition, and video analysis | High accuracy for sequential data, but slower than CNNs and FFNNs | |
Input layer, hidden layers, output layer. No cycles or loops | Simple and easy to implement. Handles static data well | Cannot model sequential data. Prone to overfitting. Limited to small datasets | Classification, regression, and pattern recognition for static data | Good for small datasets but struggle with large or sequential data |
