Fundamentals of Neural Networks - Purpose of Neural Networks

The video tutorial discusses the concepts of regression and classification in supervised learning, introducing logistic regression for classification tasks. It explains the transition from linear regression to neural networks for handling more complex data structures. The tutorial covers the use of neural networks for both regression and classification problems, highlighting the flexibility of neural networks in relaxing traditional assumptions. It also compares regression and classification tasks, providing examples of how continuous and discrete data can be modeled using these approaches.
