Neural Network Input

Is this possible to give input to ANN in Non-numeric form, like, English text sentence "Eat an Apple daily" specially in Unicode text, and ANN return output in text form only. Answer Like "Yes" "No". I don't know much about ANN but all the example codes I studied , like XOR , image input , all deal with Numeric input in ANN.

Can you please suggest some code, or links to webpage having examples related to this.

I need to train ANN for some text sentences which are in Unicode text , but don't know how to deal with text input to NN.

What we do to deal with Text input for ANN is to produce a Vector of word. Like you have a dictionary:

  • An
  • Apple
  • Eat
  • Steak
  • Zebra

And what you give to the ANN input is: [1, 1, 1, 0, 0] for Eat an apple [0, 0, 1, 0, 1] for Eat Zebra

You train your network like this and for your output you can just say that a 0 output is "No" and 1 is "Yes".

Be careful, with this solution you will have a input layer very large.
