Neural Networks -- An Intuition – Data Driven Investor – Medium

Humans have always been fascinated by nature. The flight of birds led us to invent airplanes; shark skin inspired us to make faster swimsuits and numerous other machines which draw inspiration from nature. Today we are in the era of building intelligent machines, and there is no better inspiration than the brain. Humans are particularly blessed by evolution with a brain capable of performing the most complex tasks. Since early 1940 scientists have been trying to build mathematical models and algorithms which mimic computations as they are performed inside the brain.
