Neural network design and the complexity of learning
"A Bradford book.""Using the tools of complexity theory, Stephen Judd develops a formal description of associative learning in connectionist networks. He rigorously exposes the computational difficulties in training neural networks and explores how certain design principles will or will not make the problems easier. Judd looks beyond the scope of any one particular learning rule, at a level abo…

H.G. Bronn, Ernst Haeckel, and the origins of German Darwinism : A Study in T…
A revisionist view of the history of German Darwinism examines the translation of Darwin's work and its early reception in Germany. Gliboff tells the story of how Heinrich Georg Bronn translated the book into German, and traces Bronn's influence on German Darwinism through the career of Ernst Haeckel.

Neural control engineering: The emerging intersection between control theory …
How powerful new methods in nonlinear control engineering can be applied to neuroscience, from fundamental model formulation to advanced medical applications.Over the past sixty years, powerful methods of model-based control engineering have been responsible for such dramatic advances in engineering systems as autolanding aircraft, autonomous vehicles, and even weather forecasting. Over those s…

Confronting the Challenges of Participatory Culture: Media Education for the …
Many teens today who use the Internet are actively involved in participatory cultures—joining online communities (Facebook, message boards, game clans), producing creative work in new forms (digital sampling, modding, fan videomaking, fan fiction), working in teams to complete tasks and develop new knowledge (as in Wikipedia), and shaping the flow of media (as in blogging or podcasting). A gr…

Mental reality (Second Edition, With A New Appendix)
"A Bradford book.""In Mental reality, Galen Strawson argues that much contemporary philosophy of mind gives undue primacy of place to publicly observable phenomena, nonmental phenomena, and behavioral phenomena (understood as publicly observable phenomena) in its account of the nature of mind. It does so at the expense of the phenomena of conscious experience. Strawson describes an alternative …

Neural smithing :supervised learning in feedforward artificial neural networks
"A Bradford book.""Artificial neural networks are nonlinear mapping systems whose structure is loosely based on principles observed in the nervous systems of humans and animals. The basic idea is that massive systems of simple units linked together in appropriate ways can generate many complex and interesting behaviors. This book focuses on the subset of feedforward artificial neural networks c…

Meaning in Life: The harmony of nature and spirit
An acclaimed philosopher suggests that the art of living well employs the same principles as those that exist in all artistic creativity.This final book in Irving Singer's Meaning in Life trilogy studies the interaction between nature and the values that define human spirituality. It examines the ways in which we overcome the suffering in life by resolving our sense of being divided between the…
