David Rumelhart adalah seorang psikolog kognitif Amerika, saintis komputer dan filsuf, yang mendapatkan gelar Ph.D. dalam psikologi kognitif dari Stanford University 1967. Dia berkontribusi dalam pengembangan suatu algoritma "Backpropagation" (BP) yang fundamental dalam "jejaring neural" ("neural networks") dan "Machine Learning" (ML) atau "Mesin Yang Belajar sendiri" yang digunakan dalam pelatihan dan optimalisasi "Artificial Neural Networks" (ANNs) atau "jejaring-jejaring neural buatan". Tujuan BP adalah meminimalisasi kesalahan antara output aktual dan output yang diprediksi dengan melakukan penyesuaian parameter-parameter model. Dengan berkurangnya kesalahan, kinerja ANNs dimaksimalkan.
