<h2 id="artificial-neurons" class="anchor">Artificial neurons </h2>
<p>The field of artificial neural networks has a long history of
development, and is closely connected with the advancement of computer
science and computers in general. A model of artificial neurons was
first developed by McCulloch and Pitts in 1943 to study signal
processing in the brain and has later been refined by others. The
general idea is to mimic neural networks in the human brain, which is
composed of billions of neurons that communicate with each other by
sending electrical signals. Each neuron accumulates its incoming
signals, which must exceed an activation threshold to yield an
output. If the threshold is not overcome, the neuron remains inactive,
i.e. has zero output.
</p>
<p>This behaviour has inspired a simple mathematical model for an artificial neuron.</p>
$$
\begin{equation}
y = f\left(\sum_{i=1}^n w_ix_i\right) = f(u)
\tag{1}
\end{equation}
$$
<p>Here, the output \( y \) of the neuron is the value of its activation function, which have as input
a weighted sum of signals \( x_i, \dots ,x_n \) received by \( n \) other neurons.
</p>
<p>Conceptually, it is helpful to divide neural networks into four
categories:
</p>
<ol>
<li> general purpose neural networks for supervised learning,</li>
<li> neural networks designed specifically for image processing, the most prominent example of this class being Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs),</li>
<li> neural networks for sequential data such as Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), and</li>
<li> neural networks for unsupervised learning such as Deep Boltzmann Machines.</li>
</ol>
<p>In natural science, DNNs and CNNs have already found numerous
applications. In statistical physics, they have been applied to detect
phase transitions in 2D Ising and Potts models, lattice gauge
theories, and different phases of polymers, or solving the
Navier-Stokes equation in weather forecasting. Deep learning has also
found interesting applications in quantum physics. Various quantum
phase transitions can be detected and studied using DNNs and CNNs,
topological phases, and even non-equilibrium many-body
localization. Representing quantum states as DNNs quantum state
tomography are among some of the impressive achievements to reveal the
potential of DNNs to facilitate the study of quantum systems.
</p>
<p>In quantum information theory, it has been shown that one can perform
gate decompositions with the help of neural.
</p>
<p>The applications are not limited to the natural sciences. There is a
plethora of applications in essentially all disciplines, from the
humanities to life science and medicine.
