Assignment Choice #2: Using Neural Networks to Classify People

Some have suggested that neural networks could be applied to people to indicate how likely they are to develop a disease or even become criminals. The idea is to design and “teach” a neural network-based DSS (Decision Support System) with a child’s personal characteristics, demographics, and genealogy, so that the neural network can recognize patterns in that data and suggest if that youngster is at risk for a specific disease or aberrant behavior. For this assignment, choose either susceptibility to disease or to criminal behavior. Explain thoroughly, in-depth what a neural network is and how it could work in the classification.

Include the following in your analysis:

  1. What is a neural network?
  2. How can we “teach” a neural network to recognize the specific patterns we’re interested in?
  3. Select three personal characteristics of a child –demographic or hereditary– that could influence in the future adult the chosen characteristic (disease or aberrant behavior.)
  4. What DSS tool would you recommend/use to track those three characteristics you identified earlier?

Your submission must be a minimum of two pages,and comply with CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements.

Also, Please include valid refrencing if possible.

Thanks.

Two sisters, Darla and Irene, are partners in an import business located in a small town in Rhode Island.  Irene is also campaigning to be the mayor of their town.  Both sisters travel to other countries to purchase the goods they sell at their retail store.  Irene buys Indonesian goods and Darla buys goods from Africa.  After a tsunami (title wave) destroys many of the cities in Indonesia to which Irene usually travels, she phones one of her contacts there and asks him to procure some items and ship them to her.  He informs her that it will be impossible to buy these items now because the townspeople are being evacuated due to a water shortage.  Irene is angry and tells the man that if he cannot purchase the goods, he should just take them without paying for them after the town has been evacuated.  Darla overhears her sister’s instructions and is outraged.  They have a falling out, and Darla decides that she no longer wishes to be in business with her sister.

Suppose now that Darla was in the store one day with an elderly customer, Betty Green, who was looking for a unique gift for her granddaughter’s graduation present.  When the phone rang, Darla left the customer and walked to the counter to answer the phone.  Green wandered around the store and eventually went through an open door into the stockroom area, where she fell over some boxes on the floor and fractured her hip.  Green files a negligence action against the store.  Did Darla breach her duty of care?  Why or why not?
