LEARNING
Neurons in an animals brain are hard wired. It is equally obvious that
animals, especially higher order animals, learn as they grow.
How does this learning occur?
What are possible mathematical models of learning?
In artificial neural networks, learning refers to the method of modifying
the weights of connections between the nodes of a specified network.
The learning ability of a neural network is determined by its
architecture and by the algorithmic method chosen for training.
