Can anyone point me to some good intro texts on neural networks?
Preferable some thing with some good examples in C...
Thanks,

I, too need some good introductory material for AI. I am intrigued by the idea of ai, and I understand neural networks are a part of ai. However, I do not know of any good introductory books on the subject... could someone please point me in the right direction? As in the previous post on this subject, I would like to see some examples in C, if this is possible. thanks....... wizard

I'm not sure that I'd call it an intro text, but you will no doubt have many people refer you to Parallel Distributed Processing, by Rumelhart, McClelland and the PDP Research Group, MIT Press, 1986. Volume 3 is entitled Explorations in Parallel Distributed Processing and comes with IBM PC software and lots of examples. You can play with the code as much as you like. There are several introductory texts rumored; Addison-Wesley will be publishing Hecht-Nielsen's book, Neurocomputing, "soon". This is engineering oriented, but what I've seen doesn't involve any code for simulating nets. It talks more about implementing neural nets in hardware (and not just HNC hardware...). There will no doubt be many other books soon, since this is now a hot topic. I hope (in vain, for certain), we don't see the glut of garbage books like the PC industry gave us. >------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >David HM Spector New York University >Senior Systems Programmer Stern School of Business >ARPAnet: SPECTOR@GBA.NYU.EDU Academic Computing Center >USEnet:...!{allegra,rocky,harvard}!cmcl2!spector 90 Trinity Place, Rm C-4 >HamRadio: N2BCA MCIMail: DSpector New York, New York 10006 >AppleLink: D1161 CompuServe: 71260,1410 (212) 285-6080 Dave DeMers UCSD Dept of Computer Science and Engineering La Jolla, CA 92093 (619) 534-6254 demers@cs.ucsd.edu
