A neural network is a computational model inspired by the structure of the human brain, designed to recognize patterns and process complex data. It consists of interconnected layers of nodes, or “neurons,” that transform input data into outputs through weighted connections. Neural networks are fundamental to modern AI, powering technologies like image recognition, speech processing, and generative models. They learn by adjusting connection weights during training to minimize errors and improve predictions. Deep neural networks, which contain many hidden layers, enable advanced learning capabilities that drive breakthroughs in deep learning and artificial intelligence research.
