In AI [artificial intelligence], a hidden layer refers to the layers of artificial neurons in a neural network that are not directly connected to the input or output of the network. These layers are "hidden" in the sense that their inputs and outputs are not observable in the final output of the network. 5, record 1, English, - hidden%20layer
