AI GLOSSARY
End-to-End Learning
AI & Machine Learning
A training approach where a model learns to map raw inputs directly to final outputs, without manually engineered intermediate steps. Rather than decomposing a task into hand-crafted stages, the model figures out the full pipeline from data alone. End-to-end learning became the dominant paradigm in deep learning, replacing earlier pipelines that depended heavily on domain-specific feature engineering.
