.... classification (He95). Neural networks may be applied to translate images into keywords or even translate financial data into financial predictions (Wo96). Neural networks utilize a parallel processing structure that has large numbers of processors and many interconnections between them. These processors are much simpler than typical central processing units (He90). In a neural network, each processor is linked to many of its neighbors so that there are many more interconnections than processors. The power ....
