Artificial Neural Networks
- Artificial neural networks are inspired by the human brain and how we learn.
- They use interconnected nodes with weights and biases, adjusted through iterative training data.
Brain Complexity
- The human brain has billions of interconnected neurons, enabling complex functions.
- Even small brains, like a dragonfly's, perform remarkably with limited resources.
Nodes and Weights
- A "node" in an artificial neural network mimics a neuron, processing weighted inputs.
- It combines these inputs, adds a bias, and "fires" an output if the sum exceeds a threshold.
