Bringing human cognitive intelligence (i.e., thinking, reasoning, and action) to artificial systems has always been a hot topic for researchers. In this process, they came up with idea of neural networks that try to emulate how the neurons of the human brain work. Although they are still very far from human cognitive capability, artificial neural networks hold a very promising position in the area of ML, and have transformed the way NLP applications are developed.

In this ...
