neural net

Artificial synapse system

A neural net (or neural network) is a computing system modeled loosely on the human brain, consisting of interconnected nodes that process information in layers.

Neural nets learn patterns from data rather than following explicit instructions, making them central to modern artificial intelligence: The neural net was trained on millions of images.

They power applications from speech recognition to self-driving cars.
