In this episode of Pain Points and Pull Requests, Fatimah and Carla try a deep learning approach to predicting views on a youtube video. Deep learning is a subset of machine learning, where using artificial neural networks, systems can learn patterns in data to predict outcomes. Fatimah and Carla discuss how they approached experimenting with deep learning, whilst  trying to improve the performance of their linear regression model.
