Biologically inspired intelligent decision making: a commentary on the use of artificial neural networks in bioinformatics.

8 - 10 Figure 1 , which plots number of bioinformatics papers in PubMed 11 , 12 that reference neural networks over the period 1994 to 2009, suggests that there is an increasing trend in the application of ANNs to bioinformatics problems. 13 This paper begins with an introduction to neural networks, providing a description of what they are and how they are used, as well as a high level description of how they work.
