- Adaline neural networks are single-layer neural networks that use an adaptive linear neuron as the processing unit. They can be trained using the Delta rule or least mean square rule to minimize errors. - The architecture of an Adaline network consists of an input layer, weighted sum function, activation function, bias node, error function, and gradient descent training algorithm. - Adaline networks were applied to problems like adaptive filtering, system modeling, statistical prediction, noise cancellation, and pattern recognition. - A Python implementation of Adaline for breast cancer classification is presented, including methods for model training, prediction, and evaluating accuracy.
