Early Neural Network Models
To appreciate the scope of the revolution, we have to begin in the 1940s, when the idea of artificial neurons first crystallized. Warren McCulloch and Walter Pitts proposed a mathematical model of a neuron—an abstract device that took in signals and fired if a certain threshold was reached. This was...

The Perceptron Era
In the 1950s and 1960s, the field caught fire again, thanks to Frank Rosenblatt’s perceptron. A perceptron was a direct descendant of the McCulloch–Pitts neuron but endowed with learning capacity. Rosenblatt built physical machines—arrays of sensors and weights—to demonstrate that a system could lea...
