We still have a small number of places left on the undermentioned course, and now that the cease-fire has begun people are reviewing their travel plans so we are reposting this announcement. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Cambridge University Programme for Industry Neural Networks Theory Design & Applications 15 - 19 April 1991 A five-day advanced short course on the theory, design and applications of artificial neural networks, presented by leading international experts in the field: Professor David RUMELHART Stanford University Professor Geoffrey HINTON University of Toronto Dr Andy BARTO University of Massachusetts Dr Herve BOURLARD Philips Research Labs. Belgium Professor Elie BIENENSTOCK ESPCI Paris Professor Frank FALLSIDE University of Cambridge Professor Horace BARLOW University of Cambridge Dr Peter RAYNER University of Cambridge Dr Lionel TARASSENKO University of Oxford Sri BALAKRISHNAN University of Cambridge Dr Mahesan NIRANJAN University of Cambridge Dr Richard PRAGER University of Cambridge Dr Tony ROBINSON University of Cambridge This intensive short course for scientists, engineers and their managers aims to develop an understanding of the potential for neural network-based solutions, and demonstrates techniques for transforming problems to enable neural networks to solve them more efficiently. Design methodologies for a number of common neural network architectures will be described. By the end of the course delegates will be able to assess the potential usefulness of neural network technology to their own application domains. They will have an understanding of the strength and weakness of a neural network approach and will have acquired an insight into factors affecting neural network design and performance. The lectures will be complemented by discussion sessions and demonstrations of simulated applications. The lectures will cover basic theory behind neural network algorithms, together with applications in speech and language processing, signal processing, and robotic control.
