Neural networks are computing systems inspired by the human brain that can recognize patterns in data and continuously learn. The first neural network was conceived in 1943, and they now support tasks like computer vision, speech recognition, and medical diagnosis. Neural networks are well-suited to solve complex, nonlinear problems and make inferences from data. There are several types of neural networks including feedforward, recurrent, convolutional, and autoencoder networks. Social networks allow people to connect and share information online through sites and media. They began in the 1930s with sociograms mapping relationships, and now enable people worldwide to stay connected.

What are Neural Networks?

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.

History of Neural Networks

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.

The Importance of Neural Networks

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.

• Optimization of logistics for transportation networks.
• Character and voice recognition, also known as natural language processing.
• Medical and disease diagnosis.
• Targeted marketing.
• Financial predictions for stock prices, currency, options, futures, bankruptcy and bond ratings.
• Robotic control systems.
• Electrical load and energy demand forecasting.
• Process and quality control.
• Chemical compound identification.
• Ecosystem evaluation.
• Computer vision to interpret raw photos and videos (for example, in medical imaging and
robotics and facial recognition).

What are Social Networks?


The use of Internet-based social media sites to stay connected with friends, family,
colleagues, customers, or clients. Additionally, marketers use social networking for increasing
brand recognition and encouraging brand loyalty. Also, these "make invisible social networks
visible" by allowing us to see (with pictures and links) who our friends are, who our friends'
friends are, and who our friends' friends' friends are - all in an easy-to-use interface.

History of Social Networks

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.
