Neural networks use computational graphs for training and medical image analysis

Neural networks utilize computational graphs for training, where operations are chained in a forward pass. The backward pass then calculates derivatives by applying the chain rule, multiplying local gradients at each node. This method is applied to update parameters in convolutional networks used for medical image analysis, specifically for detecting early-stage tumors. AI
