複雑なデータから特徴を抽出して学習していくプログラム，deep-learning技術が注目を浴びている．これまでも人工知能を応用した同様なシステムは存在したが，deep-learning技術を用いることで，その効率や精度といったものを桁違いに向上させることが可能となる．

Learning program extracting characteristics form complex subjects, the deep-learning technology, becomes a focus of attention. Though there have been similar systems based on the concept of the artificial interigence, order of magnitude improvements on its efficiency as well as on its accuracy have been achieved by employing the deep-learning technology.

マイクロソフトによるデモンストレーションでは，deep-learning技術を応用した自動翻訳システムによって，プレゼンターの英語のスピーチがその場で中国語に翻訳されている．

In the recent demonstration performed by the Microsoft, the speech of the presenter was instantly transformed into the Mandarin by the auto translation system, a child of the  deep-learning technology.

応用できる分野は限りない．金融や株式相場の予測，創薬，選挙の予測，電波望遠鏡の膨大なデータの解析．ネット上のBigDataを解析してテロを阻止する，雑多な自然現象から未知の物理法則を抽出する，地球温暖化対策．

There would be vast application field. such as the trend analysis of stock market,  drug design, prediction of election outcomes, analysis of the BigData from the radio telescopes around the world, anti-terrorism operation basing on the analysis of the BigData on the internet, seeking new physical law, and application to the countermeasure for the global warming….

deep-learning技術によってコンピュータが人間を凌駕するパターン認識力を得たとしたら，次は意志決定プロセスの獲得か，，，現実には，それが如何に頼りないものであっても．

どうしてもターミネーターのスカイネットを連想してしまうのは年のせい？！

If the computer significantly enhances its ability of machine recognition through the use of the deep-learning technology, the next target will be to master the decision theory no matter how the theory itself is unreliable, especially of human.

These kind of things remind me the skynet, the air defense system in the movie, Terminator. It must be old age…. Let's drink whiskey straight.
