Simple Neural Network
 Neural networks, also known as artificial neural networks (ANNs)
or simulated neural networks (SNNs).

 ANN are a subset of machine learning and are at the heart of deep
learning algorithms. Their name and structure are inspired by the human
brain, mimicking the way that biological neurons signal to one another.

 Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are comprised of a node layers, containing
an input layer, one or more hidden layers, and an output layer. Each node, or
artificial neuron, connects to another and has an associated weight and
threshold. If the output of any individual node is above the specified threshold
value, that node is activated, sending data to the next layer of the network.
Otherwise, no data is passed along to the next layer of the network.

How do neural networks work?
 Think of each individual node as its own linear regression model, composed of
input data, weights, a bias (or threshold), and an output. The formula would
look something like this:
 Weight: The weights indicate the importance of the input in the decision-making.

 Linear regression is a linear model, e.g. a model that assumes a linear
relationship between the input variables (x) and the single output variable (y)
 is used to predict the value of a variable based on the value of another
variable. The variable you want to predict is called the dependent variable.
The variable you are using to predict the other variable's value is called the
independent variable.

 All inputs are then multiplied by their respective weights and then summed.
Afterward, the output is passed through an activation function, which
determines the output. If that output exceeds a given threshold, it “fires” (or
activates) the node, passing data to the next layer in the network. This results
in the output of one node becoming in the input of the next node. This process
of passing data from one layer to the next layer defines this neural network as
a feedforward network.

First node in hidden layer =
W1 * X1 + W2 * X2
1 * 2 + 1 * 3 = 5
Second node in hidden layer =
W3 * X1 + W4 * X2
-1 * 2 + 1 * 3 = 1
Output node =
W5 * X1 + W6 * X2
2 * 5 + -1 * 1 = 9

An Activation Function decides whether a
neuron should be activated or not.
This means that it will decide whether the
neuron’s input to the network is important or
not in the process of prediction using simpler
mathematical operations.

Let’s assume that there are three factors influencing your decision-making:
1.Are the waves good? (Yes: 1, No: 0)
2.Is the line-up empty? (Yes: 1, No: 0)
3.Has there been a recent shark attack? (Yes: 0, No: 1)
Then, let’s assume the following, giving us the following inputs:
•X1 = 1, since the waves are pumping
•X2 = 0, since the crowds are out
•X3 = 1, since there hasn’t been a recent shark attack

Now, we need to assign some weights to determine importance. Larger
weights signify that particular variables are of greater importance to the
decision or outcome:
•W1 = 5, since large swells don’t come around often
•W2 = 2, since you’re used to the crowds
•W3 = 4, since you have a fear of sharks
Finally, we’ll also assume a threshold value of 3,
which would translate to a bias value of –3. With all the various inputs
, we can start to plug in values into the formula to get the desired output.

As we start to think about more practical use cases for neural networks, like
image recognition or classification, we’ll leverage supervised learning, or
labeled datasets, to train the algorithm. As we train the model,
we’ll want to evaluate its accuracy using a cost (or loss) function.
This is also commonly referred to as the mean squared error (MSE). In the
equation below,
