What are the advantages of biological neural networks (BNNs) compared to conventional Von Neumann computers? (i) BNNs have the ability to learn from examples. (ii) BNNs have a high degree of parallelism. (iii) BNNs require a mathematical model of the problem. (iv) BNNs can acquire knowledge by "trial and error". (v) BNNs use a sequential algorithm to solve problems. (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v). (i), (ii) and (iii) (i), (ii) and (iv). (i), (iii) and (iv).
