Artificial neural networks

Artificial neural networks are explained, and the different types are described. Three different tasks for which they are suitable are discussed. They are pattern classification and associative memory, self-organization and feature extracti...

Memristor-based neural networks

The synapse is a crucial element in biological neural networks, but a simple electronic equivalent has been absent. This complicates the development of hardware that imitates biological architectures in the nervous system. Now, the recent p...

Evolving artificial neural networks

Learning and evolution are two fundamental forms of adaptation. There has been a great interest in combining learning and evolution with artificial neural networks (ANNs) in recent years. This paper: 1) reviews different combinations betwee...

neuralnet: Training of Neural Networks
