related to AI-style neural networks
Describes computer systems that work like a simple model of the brain, using many small connected units called artificial neurons.
用法パターン：
neural [noun]
よくある間違い：
Learners often confuse "neural" with "neutral" because they look similar, but "neutral" means 'not taking sides' while "neural" is about neurons or neuron-like systems. Some learners also think "neural" can describe any kind of smart computer, but in computing it specifically refers to systems built from artificial neurons (neural networks), not all AI in general.
類義語
neural-network-based (Used when you want to stress that a method or system is specifically built using a neural network.)
|
connectionist (More academic and less common; refers to the same style of AI that uses networks of simple units.)
対義語
symbolic (In AI this describes systems based on explicit rules and symbols, the main contrast to neural approaches.)

related to nerves or nervous system
Describes something that is part of, or connected to, the nerves or the brain and spinal cord.
用法パターン：
neural [noun]
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes use "neural" for any part of the body, but it should only describe things related to nerves or the nervous system. It is also easy to confuse "neural" with "nerve" or "nervous" in everyday English; remember that "neural" is mainly scientific and used with words like "tissue", "pathway", and "activity".
類義語
nervous (In scientific and medical language, "nervous" can describe structures of the nervous system (e.g. nervous tissue), though in everyday English it more often means 'anxious'.)
|
neuronal (More narrowly focuses on individual neurons rather than the whole nervous system.)
対義語
muscular (Refers to muscles rather than nerves; often contrasted in anatomy and physiology (e.g. neural vs. muscular causes of weakness).)
