[comp.ai.neural-nets] refs for optimization algorithms

peretz@gradient.cis.upenn.edu (Samuel R. Peretz) (06/27/91)

I am looking for references for some of the more recent
NN optimization algorithms, e.g. the conjugate gradient method,
the "BFGS" method, the "Hopfield" method, etc.  Books which
discuss these algorithms in purely mathematical terms would be
very useful, but even more useful would be any actual implementations
of these algorithms, esp. in Common Lisp.

Send e-mail or post.  I will post a summary.

							Thanks!!
