Question

How is Deep Learning works?

Answer 1

• Deep Learning is based on the basic unit of a brain called a brain cell or a neuron. Inspired from a neuron, an artificial neuron or a perceptron was developed.
• A biological neuron has dendrites which are used to receive inputs.
• Similarly, a perceptron receives multiple inputs, applies various transformations and functions and provides an output.
• Just like how our brain contains multiple connected neurons called neural network, we can also have a network of artificial neurons called perceptron’s to form a Deep neural network.
• An Artificial Neuron or a Perceptron models a neuron which has a set of inputs, each of which is assigned some specific weight. The neuron then computes some function on these weighted inputs and gives the output.
