Fundamentals of neural networks and artificial neural networks
The basic algorithms and mathematical modeling concepts we covered in the last chapter are great when it comes to solving some of the structured and simpler problems. They are simpler compared to what the human brain is easily capable of doing. For instance, when a baby starts to identify objects through various senses (sight, sound, touch, and so on), it learns about those objects based on some fundamental building blocks within the human brain. There is a similar mechanism in all living beings with a difference in the level of sophistication based on the evolution cycle.
A neurological study of the brains of various animals and human beings reveals that the basic building blocks of the brain are neurons. These biological neurons are interconnected with each other and are capable of transmitting signals simultaneously to thousands of connected neurons. It is observed that in the more complex species, such as human beings, the...
