Crash-Course: Neural Networks Part 1 -- History and Applications

The artificial neural network is currently the best technique for solving image detection, sound, and natural language processing problems when a big amount of data is available. Image detection is perhaps the most interesting of those specified before, using convolutional neural networks to learn patterns from data. This is a fairly recent technique with applications in many fields, the most famous being automatic cars, and face detection. Artificial neural networks represent a computational system inspired by nature, more precisely by the functioning of biological neurons in the human brain. The fundamental idea behind neural networks is that if they work in nature, they should also work inside a computer.
