Biotechnologia Acta

Abstract

The aim of the work was to analyze the method of artificial neural networks and to examine its implementation in biotechnology. Nearly 300 publications are reviewed because this method is very widely used. The artificial neural networks are described and analyzed, and the examples of their application in biology and medicine are given. Solutions of complex problems, which required combining this method with other modern mathematical methods, are examined. Recommendations are presented for the application of this method in biotechnology.
