- email address of Caudill or Butler wanted
-
- I have recently acquired volume 1 and 2 of "Understanding Neural Networks" by
- Maureen Caudill and Charles Butler. They are a good exploration
- of NN basics using the computer. I would recommend them for anyone learning
- about NNs for the first time or as a quick review of unfamiliar architectures.
- The books are practical rather than theoretical and need a companion volume
- to explain the theory behind the various networks. They are quite enough for
- anyone wanting a working knowledge of NNs without first taking courses in
- probability and signal processing.
-
- I want to get hold of the author(s). I have found a few typos and problems
- with the computer files supplied. Anyone who has email addresses for either
- or both authors, could you please send them to me. Ordinary US mail address
- would also help. I believe Mareen Caudill is at UCSD.
