2.0 out of 5 stars Don't use for self study. Often unclear, contains errors., 4 April 2005
By A Customer
This book is fairly mathematically demanding, and when you are tackling such a book you have to rely on the text being accurate. Quite early on, in equation 2.62, there is an error that wasted me two days as I tried to figure out exactly what it was I had missed. I ended up having to refer to the article the material was based on, Geman et al.
From that point on, the clarity of the explanation degraded to the point that I was taking so long understanding it (and with my faith in the accuracy of the information now severely impaired), that I gave up and bought "Introduction to the Theory of Neural Computation", recommended in the comp.ai.neural-nets faq, instead.
The material was not so bad up to that point, and perhaps if you have a tutor to help you when you get stuck it is worth using, but for self-study I would not recommend it. If like me you really want to fully understand the material you will end up wasting a lot of time. If not, there are clearer, simpler books available.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive introduction to Neural Networks, 10 April 2001
By A Customer
This is a mammoth of a book. Each chapter introduces and developes a particular model of neural network. Really useful for related undergraduate university courses. It's taught me all I know!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Informative and masterfully written., 14 Sep 1998
By A Customer
A wonderfully well written, insightful, treatment of artificial neural networks. Beginning from the basics, the author sets forth both a technological and historical perspective for the understanding this multidisiplinary subject area. The book is written from a practical engineering perspective and comprehensively spans the entire discipline of modern neural network theory. A+

5.0 out of 5 stars Great theoretical support book
Far from being an in-depth search for neural networks' learning habilities, this book has a wide range of machine learning models' theoretical background. Read more
