The computing systems with interconnected nodes that work much like neurons in the human
brain. Using algorithms, they can recognize hidden patterns and correlations in raw data,
cluster and classify it, and – over time – continuously learn and improve.
The first neural network was conceived of by Warren McCulloch and Walter Pitts in 1943. They
wrote a seminal paper on how neurons may work and modeled their ideas by creating a simple
neural network using electrical circuits.
The original goal of the neural network approach was to create a computational system that
could solve problems like a human brain. However, over time, researchers shifted their focus to
using neural networks to match specific tasks, leading to deviations from a strictly biological
approach. Since then, neural networks have supported diverse tasks, including computer vision,
speech recognition, machine translation, social network filtering, playing board and video
games, and medical diagnosis.
As structured and unstructured data sizes increased to big data levels, people developed deep
learning systems, which are essentially neural networks with many layers. Deep learning enables
the capture and mining of more and bigger data, including unstructured data.
Neural networks are also ideally suited to help people solve complex problems in real-life
situations. They can learn and model the relationships between inputs and outputs that are
nonlinear and complex; make generalizations and inferences; reveal hidden relationships,
patterns and predictions; and model highly volatile data.

• Computer vision to interpret raw photos and videos (for example, in medical imaging and
robotics and facial recognition).

In the early 1930s, a self-published psychologist named Dr. Jacob Levi Moreno introduced
the sociogram, the first formal attempt to map out the relationships within a group of people.
Moreno's sociogram -- a cluster of individual points, or "nodes," connected by straight lines --
became a powerful tool for identifying social leaders, outsiders, and what he called the
"sociometric star," the person to whom all others are connected.
In 1954, anthropologist J. A. Barnes used the phrase "social network" to describe the complex
relationships in a Norwegian fishing village.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Social Media- the content that you upload such as video, picture, notes, stories etc.
additionally, these are one-to-many communication method. Furthermore, other people are
able to give their insights about your content.
