The multi-layer perceptron network learns based on the Delta Rule, which is also inspired by the gradient descent optimization method. The gradient method is broadly applied to find minima or maxima of a given function:

This method is applied at walking the direction where the function's output is higher or lower, depending on the criteria. This concept is explored in the Delta Rule:
The function that the Delta Rule wants to minimize is the error between the neural network output and the target output, and the parameters to be found ...
