Basics of Neural Networks with example codes and illustrations
Does anyone have any examples of areas where neural networks beat out statistical based methods, other than maybe image recognition? I can't even think of another major area where they dominate.<p>- Search engines use algorithms, not neural nets.<p>- The most popular algorithm on Kaggle (data analysis competitions) is random forests<p>- Google's self-driving car uses statistical-based methods<p>I can't imagine commercial aircraft would use a neural net. What happened if one crashed? They would analyze the data and ask questions like, Q: "What happened?" A: "I don't know" Q: "Can we fix it so it doesn't happen again?" A: "I don't know".
