Ever since eternity, one thing that has made
human beings stand apart from the rest of the animal kingdom is, its brain .The
most intelligent device on earth, the “Human brain” is the driving force that
has given us the ever-progressive species diving into technology and
development as each day progresses.
Due to his inquisitive nature, man tried to
make machines that could do intelligent job processing, and take decisions
according to instructions fed to it. What resulted was the machine that
revolutionized the whole world, the “Computer” (more technically speaking the
Von Neumann Computer). Even though it could perform millions of calculations
every second, display incredible graphics and 3-dimentional animations, play
audio and video but it made the same mistake every time.
Practice could not make it perfect. So the
quest for making more intelligent device continued. These researches lead to
birth of more powerful processors with high-tech equipments attached to it,
super computers with capabilities to handle more than one task at a time and
finally networks with resources sharing facilities. But still the problem of
designing machines with intelligent self-learning, loomed large in front of
mankind. Then the idea of initiating human brain stuck the designers who
started their researches one of the technologies that will change the way
computer work Artificial Neural Networks.
