Backpropagation and bicycle: what they have in common

  1. Step 1. Backpropagation — uses — Artificial neural network. Training.
  2. Step 2. Artificial neural network — is used in — Optical character recognition (OCR). Modern recognition.
  3. Step 3. Optical character recognition (OCR) — uses — Image sensor. Scanning.
  4. Step 4. Image sensor — is part of — Trackball. An optical sensor of the ball’s motion.
  5. Step 5. Trackball — has part — Ball bearing. The ball rotates on supports.
  6. Step 6. Ball bearing — is part of — Bicycle. Ball bearings in the hubs and bottom bracket let the wheels and pedals spin easily.
