neural network

A neural network is a massively parallel distributed processor made up of single processing units that has a natural propensity for storing experimental knowledge and making it available for use. It resembles the brain in two respects:

1. knowledge is acquired by the network from its environment through a learning process:

2. Interneuron connection strengths, known as synaptic weights, are used to store the acquired knowledge.
