An Overview of Artificial Neural Networks: Part 2 McCulloch-Pitts Model

This paper presents the basic concepts of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) which helps to beginner of ANN. The history of ANN, different applications of ANN, different learning rules and different types of architectures are discussed in the introductory part of this paper. The architecture of ANN has been described in detail. The McCulloch Pitts model is explained with mathematical equations.   The McCulloch Pitts model is implemented for AND, OR, NOT and XOR gate. The algorithms for implementation of above gates have been given. To help users MATLAB code is also given in this paper.
