Neural Networks

Neural Networks presents concepts of neural-network models and techniques of parallel distributed processing in a three-step approach: – A brief overview of the neural structure of the brain and the history of neural-network modeling introduces to associative memory, preceptrons, feature-sensitive networks, learning strategies, and practical applications. – The second part covers subjects like statistical physics of spin glasses, the mean-field theory of the Hopfield model, and the “space of interactions” approach to the storage capacity of neural networks. – The final part discusses nine programs with practical demonstrations of neural-network models. The software and source code in C are on a 3 1/2” MS-DOS diskette can be run with Microsoft, Borland, Turbo-C, or compatible compilers.
