Neural networks are computational models inspired by the human brain that are composed of interconnected processing units. They can be used for tasks like pattern recognition, learning, and interpreting incomplete data. A neural network contains an input layer, hidden layers where computation occurs, and an output layer. The number of hidden layers and neurons depends on the sizes of the input and output layers.

Introduction of neural network
The definition of a neural network, more properly referred to as an 'artificial'
neural network (ANN), is provided by the inventor of one of the first neurocomputers, Dr. Robert Hecht-Nielsen. He defines a neural network as "...a computing system made up of a number of simple, highly interconnected processing elements, which process information by their dynamic state response to external inputs." Or we can also think of Artificial Neural Network as computational model that is inspired by the way biological neural networks in the human brain process information and The basic computational unit of the brain is a neuron. Approximately 86 billion neurons can be found in the human nervous system and they are connected with approximately 10¹⁴ — 10¹⁵ synapses. The diagram below shows a cartoon drawing of a biological neuron (left) and a common mathematical model (right). The preliminary theoretical base for contemporary neural networks was independently proposed by Alexander Bai (1873) and William James (1890). In their work, both thoughts and body activity resulted from interactions among neurons within the brain. Neural networks can be used in different fields and have some benefits for us like: (Pattern recognition, learning, classification, generalization and abstraction, and interpretation of incomplete and noisy inputs, Provide some human problem-solving characteristics, Robust, Fast, flexible and easy to maintain, Powerful hybrid systems.) The Neural Network is constructed from 3 type of layers and they are: Input layer: initial data for the neural network. Hidden layers: intermediate layer between input and output layer and place where all the computation is done. Output layer: produce the result for given inputs. And neural networks chooses their layers : The number of hidden neurons should be between the size of the input layer and the size of the output layer. The number of hidden neurons should be 2/3 the size of the input layer, plus the size of the output layer. The number of hidden neurons should be less than twice the size of the input layer.
