Neural networks. Brief reference

The series "Fundamentals of Computing Systems" Publishing House Presentice Hall provides compressed, convenient for study and unified in form, introducing into an object that underlies the corresponding university course. In accordance with the latest changes in the higher education system, it also uses the corresponding pedagogical means - a specific approach, carefully selected examples and questions for self -testing - in order to help the student better understand the material.
This book is the first book of the course on neural networks for senior students, and mathematics in it is used in the minimum volume. The main goal of the book is to reveal the basic concepts and study the basic models of neural networks with a depth that an experienced programmer can implement such a network in the programming language that will be preferable to him. The first six chapters of the book examine the main models of neural networks that are important for understanding the foundations of the subject being studied, and the last two chapters discuss the connections between neural networks and have already become traditional concepts from the field of artificial intelligence. Robert Kallan has a five -year teaching practice and holds the position of senior teacher at the Institute of Southampton. He has the degree of Doctor of Sciences in the field of neural networks and artificial intelligence and a number of published scientific articles on this topic. Before doing teaching, he led the implementation of industrial projects in which the theory of artificial intelligence and neural networks was applied in practice
