Neural networks are powerful computational models capable of approximating complex mathematical

functions. This capability is supported by the Universal Approximation Theorem.

The theorem states that a neural network with at least one hidden layer and nonlinear activation
functions can approximate any continuous function on a bounded domain.

Neural networks consist of layers of neurons. Each neuron performs a simple computation:

output = activation(weight * input + bias)

Common activation functions include ReLU, sigmoid, and tanh. These functions introduce nonlinearity
which allows networks to model complex relationships in data.

Deep neural networks stack multiple layers together, allowing the model to learn hierarchical
representations.
