\newglossaryentry{entropy}{
    name={entropy},
    description={
        describes the amount of information provided by something. More likely
        events have a lower entropy than rare events. In case of classification probabilities, uniform predictions contain more information than predictions with a clear "winner"
    }

\newglossaryentry{Hopfield network}{
    name={Hopfield network},
    description={
        is a recurrent neural network. Used as "associative" memory
        systems with binary thresholds. Guaranteed to converge to local
        minimum, this can be the wrong one though
    }
