We create a neural network. Rashid T.

This book is an introduction into the theory and practice of creating neural networks. It is intended for those who want to know what neural networks are, where they are used and how to create such a network, without experience in this area. The author explains the theoretical aspects in a simple and understandable language, the knowledge of which is necessary for understanding the principles of the functioning of neural networks and writing relevant software instructions. The presentation of the material is accompanied by a detailed description of the phased creation of a fully functional code that implements a neural network in Python and is able to be performed even on such a miniature computer as Raspberry Pi Zero.
