   What is a backward propagation algorithm?

   • Our goal with the backward propagation algorithm is to update each weight in the network so that the actual output is closer to the target output, thereby minimizing the error for each neuron and the network as a whole. Consider w5; we will calculate the rate of change of error w.r.t the change in the weight w5:
