Simple Artificial Neural Network (ANN) Implementation
Description:
This PR adds a basic implementation of a feedforward Artificial Neural Network (ANN) using Python and NumPy. The network consists of one hidden layer and uses Sigmoid activation, backpropagation with gradient descent, and Mean Squared Error (MSE) as the loss function. It demonstrates a solution to the XOR problem, commonly used in introductory neural network tutorials.
Key Features:
- Feedforward neural network with 1 hidden layer.
- Sigmoid activation function.
- Gradient Descent optimizer for weight updates.
- Mean Squared Error (MSE) loss function.
- Example provided to solve the XOR problem.
