Decoding AI: Your Questions Answered
What is a Neural Network?
A neural network is a computational structure inspired by the human brain, consisting of interconnected nodes or "neurons." These networks recognize patterns by adjusting the weights of connections during training. Structurally, they have an input layer (receiving data), one or more hidden layers (processing data), and an output layer (producing results). They're used in machine learning to interpret data, make predictions, and classify information without being explicitly programmed for the task.
