who john hopfield is
John Joseph Hopfield is an American physicist and emeritus professor of Princeton University, most widely known for his study of associative neural networks in 1982. He is known for the development of the Hopfield network. Before its invention, research in artificial intelligence (AI) was in a decay period or AI winter; Hopfield's work revitalized large-scale interest in this field.
