The term neural networks as used in data mining is a misnomer.

  • A.True
  • B.False

Answer: A

Correct answer: True

The name is a misnomer because a neural network in data mining is not a model of the brain and has no biological content: it is a nonlinear regression technique, a set of weighted functions fitted to data. The name reflects the historical origin of the idea rather than what the technique actually does.
