#87: Artificial neural networks: imitating human brain to solve problems like humans

An artificial neural network is a computer algorithm somewhat inspired by our brains. Superficially, our brain is a network of neurons connected with each other and communicating via electrical impulses. Artificial intelligence experts implemented a similar concept purely in software. An artificial neuron is basically a function that takes a set of inputs and has an output. Just like the biological one. By connecting hundreds of such neurons in a network, we can observe quite intelligent behaviours. For example, artificial neural networks can recognize what’s in the image. Or quite the opposite - generate images from text.
