This manuscript offers an accessible yet thorough introduction to artificial neural networks (ANNs), starting from biological inspiration and history, then formalizing components of ANNs (neurons, activation, network topologies), and covering a wide range of learning paradigms — supervised (perceptrons, multilayer perceptrons, radial-basis functions, backpropagation), recurrent networks and Hopfield networks; and unsupervised paradigms such as self-organizing maps and adaptive-resonance theory.
It also includes appendices on clustering, online learning, reinforcement learning, and practical considerations — useful both for beginners and more advanced readers interested in a broad overview of neural-network theory and techniques.
