neural
Meaning: Relating to nerves or the nervous system; in computing, describing systems modelled on the structure and function of the human brain.
Neural has applications in both biology and artificial intelligence. In neuroscience, it describes anything relating to the nervous system (neural pathways, neural activity). In computing, 'neural networks' are AI systems inspired by the brain's interconnected neurons, used in machine learning for tasks like image recognition and language processing. Common collocations include 'neural network,' 'neural pathway,' 'neural processing,' and 'artificial neural network.'
Examples
