1. collecting a set of labeled data
2. adjust the weights + balance → to find an optimal “decision boundary.”
as we recall, Binary neurons could act as a “classifier”
Hence essentially, Binary Neurons = acting as a Classifier
However, there are cons 🙁 of Binary Neurons
→ some data is not… Read the full blog for free on Medium.
