Giant intuitive diagram showing how an artificial neural network works; by allowing error signals (aka changes in costs) to “trickle” backwards from the output layer.

For example: “Trickling” backwards simply means a value (aka cost) computed at some neuron j in layer L is input to values generated by computations of some prior neuron k in layer L-1. Some cost computed from neuron k then becomes input to values generated by computations of some prior neuron m, in layer L-2.
