Deep learning describes a class of machine learning algorithms that are capable of combining raw inputs into layers of intermediate features. [] Key Result Following from an extensive literature review, we find that deep learning has yet to revolutionize biomedicine or definitively resolve any of the most pressing challenges in the field, but promising advances have been made on the prior state of the art. Even though improvements over previous baselines have been modest in general, the recent progress…
