Ebook Artificial neural networks

This course is an introduction to the subject of Artificial Neural Networks and Genetic Algorithms, two very new subjects forming part of Distributed Artificial Intelligence. As you leaf through these notes you will notice that they are full of mathematical equations. The reason is simple: these subjects are inherently mathematical. However the course and assessments are such that it will be possible for you to pass if you do not touch the equations. However if you wish to gain a good pass you must attempt to master the equations. In addition, by doing so, you will gain a deeper insight into the operation of these two exciting technologies.
