Chapter 14. Artificial Neural Networks
In this chapter, we are going to learn about artificial neural networks. We will start with an introduction to artificial neural networks and the installation of the relevant library. We will discuss perceptrons and how to build a classifier based on them. We will learn about single layer neural networks and multilayer neural networks. We will see how to use neural networks to build a vector quantizer. We will analyze sequential data using recurrent neural networks. We will then use artificial neural networks to build an optical character recognition engine.
