End-to-end learning in AI refers to training a single model to perform a task from raw input to final output, without any intermediate steps or feature engineering. This approach has been successful in many areas of AI, such as speech recognition and machine translation, where end-to-end models have achieved state-of-the-art results.
In end-to-end learning, a model is trained to map raw inputs to desired outputs using a large amount of labeled data. The model learns to extract useful features from the data and to use these features to make predictions. This is typically done using deep learning techniques, such as convolutional neural networks or recurrent neural networks.
End-to-end learning can simplify the design of AI systems, as it removes the need for manual feature engineering and intermediate steps.
End-to-end learning can lead to more accurate and efficient models, as the model can learn to extract the most relevant features for the task. However, it also requires large amounts of labeled data, and can be more difficult to interpret and debug than models with explicit intermediate steps.
