Overview of this book

In this age of big data, companies have larger amount of consumer data than ever before, far more than what the current technologies can ever hope to keep up with. However, Artificial Intelligence closes the gap by moving past human limitations in order to analyze data. With the help of Artificial Intelligence for big data, you will learn to use Machine Learning algorithms such as k-means, SVM, RBF, and regression to perform advanced data analysis. You will understand the current status of Machine and Deep Learning techniques to work on Genetic and Neuro-Fuzzy algorithms. In addition, you will explore how to develop Artificial Intelligence algorithms to learn from data, why they are necessary, and how they can help solve real-world problems. By the end of this book, you'll have learned how to implement various Artificial Intelligence algorithms for your big data systems and integrate them into your product offerings such as reinforcement learning, natural language processing, image recognition, genetic algorithms, and fuzzy logic systems.

Summary


In this chapter, we introduced the most important concept in realizing intelligent machines, which is artificial neural networks. The ANNs are modeled against the biological brain. While the theory of ANN existed for decades, the advent of distributed computing power along with access to unprecedented volumes of data has enabled development in this exciting field of research.

In this chapter, we introduced the basic building blocks of the ANNs and simple techniques to train the models in order to generalize the model for producing outcomes for the new datasets.

This introduction is a building block for the next chapter, which will dive deeper into the implementation aspects of the neural networks.
