Feedforward Neural Network (FNN)

What is Feedforward Neural Network (FNN)?

An FNN is the simplest neural network where connections do not form cycles. Information moves in one direction: from input, through hidden layers, to output.

Where did the term "Feedforward Neural Network (FNN)" come from?

The classic 'Multilayer Perceptron' architecture.

How is "Feedforward Neural Network (FNN)" used today?

Foundational architecture before RNNs and Transformers.
