Neural Networks for Applied Sciences and Engineering

by Sandhya Samarasinghe

Neural Networks for Applied Sciences and Engineering Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In response to an increasing demand for novel computing methods, Neural Networks for Applied Sciences and Engineering provides a simple but systematic introduction to neural networks applications. This book features case studies that use real data to demonstrate practical applications. It contains in-depth discussions of data and model validation issues along with uncertainty and sensitivity assessment of models as well as data dimensionality and methods to reduce dimensionality. It provides detailed coverage of neural network types for extracting nonlinear patterns in multi-dimensional scientific data in prediction, classification, clustering and forecasting with an extensive coverage on linear networks, multi-layer perceptron, self organization maps, and recurrent networks.

Book News Annotation:

Samarasinghe (natural resources engineering, Lincoln U., New Zealand) describes how neural networks are used to find patterns in scientific data. Beginning with the basics, she explains a variety of neural networks' internal workings, and how to apply them to solve real problems. Among the types are Multilayer Perceptron for predictions and classification, Self-Organizing Feature Maps for unsupervised clustering, and Recurrent Networks for understanding and forecasting time-series. Distributed in the US by Taylor and Francis. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
