Neuron


In the context of data science and artificial intelligence, a neuron is a mathematical function that receives one or multiple inputs, applies a set of weights to them, and produces an output. Neurons are the building blocks of artificial neural networks, which are used for various tasks such as image recognition, natural language processing, and predictive analytics. Each neuron is connected to other neurons through synapses, which transmit the output of one neuron as input to another. The weights assigned to each input determine the strength of the connection between neurons and are adjusted during the training process to optimize the network's performance. The activation function of a neuron determines whether the output signal is transmitted to other neurons or not, based on a threshold value.
