neural network

neural network also neural net

A real or virtual device, modeled after the human brain, in which several interconnected elements process information simultaneously, adapting and learning from past patterns.

neural network

1. (Life Sciences & Allied Applications / Physiology) an interconnected system of neurons, as in the brain or other parts of the nervous system

2. (Electronics & Computer Science / Computer Science) Also called neural net an analogous network of electronic components, esp one in a computer designed to mimic the operation of the human brain

neural, neural network - Neural comes from Greek neuron, "nerve"; neural network can now refer to computer architecture in which processors are connected in a manner suggestive of connections between neurons.
