Data Augmentation in Deep Learning Explained

In this lesson, we'll explore the concept of data augmentation, how it's used in deep learning, and under what circumstances we may want to make use of it.

Data augmentation is the process of creating additional augmented data by reasonably modifying the data in our training set. We first introduced the idea of data augmentation in an earlier lesson as a technique that can be used to reduce overfitting.
