Uses for Neural Networks A major reason for the popularity of neural networks is that they can solve real-world problems and make intelligent decisions with little to no human intervention.

Such networks are being used in chemistry and drug discovery as well, for example to predict the binding affinities of proteins and ligands based on their structures. In combination with a technique ...

A tweak to the way artificial neurons work in neural networks could make AIs easier to decipher. Artificial neurons—the fundamental building blocks of deep neural networks—have survived almost ...

These networks could be powerful and lightweight, so people could use them with smaller electronic devices. And in time, we could have neural networks operating nearly everywhere.

Researchers are training neural networks to make decisions more like humans would. This science of human decision-making is only just being applied to machine learning, but developing a neural ...

We’re told neural networks ‘learn’ the way humans do. A neuroscientist explains why that’s not the case — and why AI can't think like us yet.
