The human inspiration\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

In our brain, a neuron is activated once it receives in its dendrites an input, a signal strong enough (around 70 mV over less than 2ms) to cause an answer as output.
If activated, the neuron transmits a signal to other neurons through its synaptic terminals<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The technological application<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

Artificial Neurons<\/b> work “roughly” the same way : they get activated by the information received from the system or from other neurons.
Artificial Neural Networks <\/b>(ANN<\/b>) are models that were inspired by the structure and\/or functions of biological neural networks.
Nowadays, the parallel is probably less relevant, even if biology remains a souurce of inspiration, as ANN have evolved independently from biological ones and have taken full opportunity of many mathematical developments.<\/p>

Deep Learning<\/strong> is a modern development of these neural networks allowed by the dramatic increase in computing capabilities. The neural network can include up to thousands of\u00a0 hidden layers, with very complex structures,<\/strong> and each layer hundreds or thousands neurons.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The applications<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

For regression<\/strong> purpose, the output will consist of one single neuron<\/em> that will output the predicted value.
For classification<\/strong> purpose, there will be as many output neurons as there are classes. Each neuron will output a value that corresponds to the likelihood of its class.<\/p>

Let’s assume we build a neural network to recognize hand-written digits…<\/p>
