- Epskampie 4y agoYes, neural networks are "constructs", not algorithms, we fully agree.
- tomrod 4y agoFortunately, a combination of algorithms put together in a specified way is, in of itself, an algorithm. Most are various forms of addition ;-)
- IshKebab 4y agoRight, there are algorithms to train and run neural nets. But the calculation that the neural net itself does can't really be described as an algorithm (unless you distort the term to lose all meaning).

- tomrod 4y agoThey used to be called black box algorithms, if that is a salve.
