Summary

"As an extension of artificial intelligence research, artificial neural networks (ANN) aim to simulate intelligent behavior by mimicking the way that biological neural networks function. In Artificial Neural Networks: Methods and Applications, an international panel of experts report the history of the application of ANN to chemical and biological problems, provide a guide to network architectures, training and the extraction of rules from trained networks, and cover many cutting-edge examples of the application of ANN to chemistry and biology. In the tradition of the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, this volume exhibits clear, easy-to-use information with many step-by-step laboratory protocols." "Comprehensive and state-of-the-art, Artificial Neural Networks: Methods and Applications is an excellent guide to this accelerating technological field of study."--BOOK JACKET.
