Neural network mechanisms are a relatively new and developing science in computer technologies. The particular area derives its basis from the way neurons interact and function in the natural animal brain, especially humans. The animal brain is known to operate in massively parallel manner in recognition, reasoning, reaction and damage recovery. All these seemingly sophisticated undertakings are now understood to be attributed to aggregations of very simple algorithms of pattern storage and retrieval. Neurons in the brain communicate with one another across special electrochemical links known as synapses. At a time one neuron can be linked to as many as 10,000 others although links as high as hundred thousands are observed to exist. The typical human brain at birth is estimated to house one hundred billion plus neurons. Such a combination would yield a synaptic connection of 1015, which gives the brain its power in complex graphical computation.
The inspiration of this speed advantage of artificial machines, and parallel capability of the natural brain that motivated the effort to combine the two and enable performing complex Artificial Intelligence tasks believed to be impossible in the pas
