NEURAL NETWORK

Module 14: Information Systems for Managerial Decision Support


Neural Network
A neural network is a type of machine learning which models itself after the
human brain. This creates an artificial neural network that via an algorithm allows
the computer to learn by incorporating new data.

While the basic unit of the brain is the neuron, the essential building block of an
artificial neural network is a perceptron which accomplishes simple signal processing,
and these are then connected into a large mesh network.

How neural networks learn

Supervised Learning :
1 This learning strategy is the simplest, as there is a labeled
dataset, which the computer goes through, and the
algorithm gets modified until it can process the dataset to
get the desired result.
How neural networks learn

Unsupervised Learning :
2 This strategy gets used in cases where there is no labeled
dataset available to learn from. The neural network
analyzes the dataset, and then a cost function then tells
the neural network how far off of target it was. The
neural network then adjusts to increase accuracy of the
algorithm.
How neural networks learn

Reinforced Learning :
3 In this algorithm, the neural network is reinforced for positive
results, and punished for a negative result, forcing the
neural network to learn over time.

Application of ANN in Information System of Management Accounting

◇ According to the applications of ANNs and soft computing tools


in the field of accounting and management are increasingly on
the rise [1, 3]. Recently titles such as neural networks, genetic
algorithms and fuzzy logic are the issues that has attracted
the attention of many researchers in the field of humanities[10].
These methods as a powerful tool in solving complex problems
which could not be solved by traditional methodologies have
been used.

Application of ANN in Information System of Management Accounting

◇ Ann Extract knowledge to the network structure to the process


of experimental data that is called learning.anns in addition to
applications in various field, their position have found in
accounting and finance since a long time ago. The researchers
have used different ways of technologies and techniques ann in
accounting.

Basically, the ability to learn the most
important feature is an intelligent
system. A system that is more flexible
and simple to learn more is planned so it
can be responsive about new problems
or equations.
