Introduction to Neural Networks
Neural networks are a series of computational algorithms that endeavor to recognize underlying relationships in a set of data through a process that mimics the neural pathways of the biological human brain.
An artificial neural network (ANN) is based on a collection of connected units or nodes called artificial neurons, which process information dynamically and adjust connections during learning.
Ask Elena on the right: "Elena, tell me about Activation Functions" to see what role these nodes play!
