Neural Network vs Decision Tree
Neural Network (Multi-Layer Perceptron, MLP) is an algorithm inspired by biological neural networks. The MLP consists of connected graph of processing units that mimic the neurons. The connections between neurons are so-called weights. Their values are selected during the training process. The training goal is to minimize the error between values predicted by MLP and true values.
