摘要:The class of adaptive systems known as Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) was motivated by the amazing parallel processing capabilities of biological brains (especially the human brain). The main driving force was to re-create these abilities by constructing artificial models of the biological neuron. This paper is focused to feed -forward networks. The field has become so vast that a complete and clear-cut description of all the approaches is an enormous undertaking. The power of biological neural structures stems from the enormous number of highly interconnected simple units. The simplicity comes from the fact that, once the complex electro -chemical processes are abstracted, the resulting computation turns out to be conceptually very simple. These artificial neurons have nowadays little in common with their biological counterpart in the ANN paradigm. Rather, they are primarily used as computational devices, clearly intended to problem solving: optimization, function app roximation, classification, time-series prediction and others. In practice few elements are connected and their connectivity is low
