Neural Networks as Cybernetic Systems

This book on biological cybernetics combines system theory and artificial neural networks. Following a 'holistic' approach, the book examines the role of simulation in biology. Mainly addressed to students of Biology, the book tries to avoid the use of mathematical formula as far as possible. Exercises can be performed with a related software tool (tkCybernetics) for part 1 as well as with educational simulation on neural networks for part two (in prepration.)

Neural Networks as Cybernetic Systems - 3rd and revised edition

This third edition essentially compares with the 2nd one, but has been improved by correction of errors and by a rearrangement and minor expansion of the sections referring to recurrent networks. These changes hopefully allow for an easier comprehension of the essential aspects of this important domain that has received growing attention during the last years.
