Dealing with complexity

the long version

This volume brings together a collection of top international researchers in the field of artificial neural networks with the = common theme being an attempt to tackle the problem of complexity. The contributions range from more theoretical analyses of the neural network approach to a number of application-oriented articles which indicate the extent of the problem from a more practical viewpoint. The use of neural networks is a relatively new, but increasingly popular, approach to the problem of complexity. Dealing with Complexity is an extremely multi-disciplinary = examination of the above issues: although primarily intended for industrial/academic researchers, and postgraduate students working within computing science, it will also be of interest to anyone=20 working on relevant research projects or applications within the following fields: physics, mathematics and engineering.
