Biological Neural Networks

Artificial neural networks inspired by biological neurons are found in our brain. In fact, artificial neural networks mimic the basic functioning of neural networks in our brain, but in a much simpler way. Let's first look at neural biological networks to find similarities in artificial neural networks. In short, the natural neural network is made up of many neurons.

A typical neuron consists of a body cell, dendrites, and axons. Dendrites are tiny structures from the cell body. Axon is a cellular extension from this cell body. Many neurons receive signals through dendrites and send signals along the axon.
In most synapses, signals fall from the axon of one neuron to the dendrite of another. All neurons are electrically attractive due to the preservation of voltage gradients in their components. When a voltage changes at a sufficiently large rate in a short period of time, the neuron forms a pulochemical pulse called a potential action. This may move rapidly around the axon and activate synaptic communication as it reaches them.
