Neural Network Design (2nd Edition)

Neural Network Design (2nd Edition), by the authors of the Neural Network Toolbox for MATLAB, provides a clear and detailed coverage of fundamental neural network architectures and learning rules. This book gives an introduction to basic neural network architectures and learning rules. Emphasis is placed on the mathematical analysis of these networks, on methods of training them and on their application to practical engineering problems in such areas as nonlinear regression, pattern recognition, signal processing, data mining and control systems.
