There is probably a ton of isomorphism between different models. It may come down to what is easiest to understand and fastest to implement in code.

    So a "neural network" is actually a type of parameterized mathematical function that can be fit to any curve including higher dimensional surfaces, etc.?

      Yes.

      That's correct. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_approximation_theorem https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_approximation_theore... for more details
