Understanding the feed-forward mechanism is required in order to create a neural network that solves difficult practical problems such as predicting the result of a football game or the movement of a ...

Industrial control systems can be categorized in two types: open-loop and closed-loop systems. The open-loop control system is a continuous control system that provides no feedback from its output.

If you examine both figures you'll see that, in essence, a neural network accepts some numeric inputs (2.0, 3.0 and 4.0 in this example), does some processing and produces some numeric outputs (0.93 ...
