Neural Networks - Introduction

May 12, 2026


๐Ÿง  Understanding Neural Networks

Neural networks are computational models inspired by the human brain.
They are widely used in
Machine Learning and Deep Learning.

Hi shaoyi

f(x)=wโˆ—x+bf(x) = w*x + bf(x)=wโˆ—x+b

๐Ÿ“Œ What is a Neural Network?

A neural network is composed of:

  • Input layer
  • Hidden layers
  • Output layer
  • Weights
  • Activation functions

A neural network learns by adjusting its weights to minimise a loss function.

Component Description Example


Input Layer Receives raw data Images, Text Hidden Layer Performs transformations Dense Layer Output Layer Produces prediction Class label


โš™๏ธ Training Process

  1. Forward propagation
  2. Compute loss
  3. Backpropagation
  4. Update weights

๐Ÿงฎ Example Formula

y = activation(Wx + b)

Where:

  • W = weights matrix\
  • x = input vector\
  • b = bias\
  • activation() = non-linear function

๐Ÿ”ฅ Types of Neural Networks

  • Feedforward Neural Networks
  • Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN)
  • Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN)
  • Transformers

๐Ÿ“Š Advantages vs Limitations

Advantages Limitations


High accuracy Requires large datasets Learns complex patterns Computationally expensive Works well for images/text Hard to interpret


Neural networks have revolutionised artificial intelligence by enabling models to learn hierarchical representations of data.
However, they require careful tuning, significant computational power, and high-quality datasets.


๐Ÿš€ Conclusion

Neural networks are at the core of modern AI systems and are used in:

  • Computer Vision
  • Natural Language Processing
  • Speech Recognition
  • Autonomous Systems
