Parallel Distributed Processing (PDP)
Parallel Distributed Processing (PDP) is a way of understanding how the brain or artificial systems process information. It involves many small units working simultaneously and sharing information across a network, rather than processing sequentially. This parallel approach allows for efficient handling of complex tasks, learning from experience, and adapting to new information. Think of it like a team where each member contributes part of the solution at the same time, leading to faster and more flexible problem-solving, much like how our brains manage multiple thoughts and processes simultaneously.
