Abstract: “Artificial Neural Networks became a common solution for a wide variety of problems in many fields, such as control and pattern recognition to name but a few. Many solutions found in these and other Artificial Neural Network fields have reached a hardware implementation phase, either commercial or with prototypes. The most frequent solution for the implementation of Artificial Neural Networks consists of training and implementing the Artificial Neural Networks within a computer. In this paper we discussed the hardware aspects of ANN and its applications in various field.”

Keywords: Artificial Neural Network, Hardware of ANN, applications of ANN
