What is Backpropagation?

Skill Level:

Backpropagation is a technique used in training Artificial Neural Networks. It involves propagating error information backward through the network, allowing adjustments to be made to the network’s parameters. Backpropagation helps improve the accuracy and effectiveness of neural networks in tasks like pattern recognition and prediction.
