USH Cognitive Computing Deep Learning & Learning Paradigms Application Cases Discussion

I’m working on a computer science discussion question and need an explanation to help me study.

1. Cognitive computing has become a popular term to define and characterize the extent of the ability of machines/computers to show “intelligent” behavior. Thanks to IBM Watson and its success on Jeopardy!, cognitive computing and cognitive analytics are now part of many real-world intelligent systems. In this exercise, identify at least three application cases where cognitive computing was used to solve complex real-world problems. Summarize your findings in a professionally organized report.
2. What is deep learning? What can deep learning do that traditional machine-learning methods cannot?
3. List and briefly explain different learning paradigms/methods in AI.
4. What is representation learning, and how does it relate to machine learning and deep learning?
5. List and briefly describe the most commonly used ANN activation functions.
6. What is MLP, and how does it work? Explain the function of summation and activation weights in MLP-type ANN.
