Pictures and diagrams go a LONG way to helping someone understand a topic. Especially if your topic is a little abstract or complex. Using a picture or diagram is a two part process:

Case study notes[1]

Introduction[edit]

Receptive fields used in an artificial neural networks are similar to the biological explanation. They are a sensory neuron where a prompt, or stimulation, changes the action of the neuron.[2] In other words, the fields gather information to be used by the neurons. They are used in relation to convolutional neural networks (CNNs). The neurons are arranged in a 3-D array. [3]

How does it work or a deeper look[edit]

The receptive field gathers information and sends the information to the neurons in the CNNs. Rather than a more traditional neural network where every input neuron is linked to every other neuron at the first level, Receptive fields allow for "pre-processing" of just a certain grid (or part) of the input image.

Examples[edit]

The Gaussian receptive fields are being used in test on cars to allow them to be detected. [4]
