[comp.ai.neural-nets] Who's doing What in neural net research?

cosc2mi@uhnix1.UUCP (Francis Kam) (02/09/88)

I posted a request for neural net research information which was considered
too general.  My objective is to gather information of technical 
reports, papers, on-going research projects, experimental results, etc. I
think information like this will facilitate further research in neural net
or related computation for the research community as a whole.  If there're 
already sources of information like these, please let me know.  Information
that I collected from responses of this article will be posted onto the
bulletin board or sent by email.

To be specific, interested(to me) areas are: (not meant to be comprehensive)
1) neural net model (or PDP model) as a general model of parallel
   computation -- validity, applicable problem domains, performance
   analysis, levels and structures, etc.;
2) neural machines -- experimental and commercial; I'm aware of Mark III
   Mark IV by TRW electronics (details not known); any work on hypercubes
   and Connection Machine, etc.; in communication intensive model like 
   neural net, is there any successful simulation done on an Ethernet of
   Sun's, for example;
3) neural net programming environment -- language of neuronal computation
   description, network layout description, monitoring, software development
   environment etc.;
4) learning in neural net -- learning rules, memory capacity, behavior such
   as forgetting and re-learn, etc.;
5) applications -- optimization problems, ai applications, any others to show
   the usefulness of this model.
