Description for The Roots of Backpropagation. From Ordered Derivatives to Neural Networks and Political Forecasting.
Hardcover. An introduction to the concept of backpropagation, or "dynamic feedback", an algorithm developed by the author to be used in neural networking. The text initiates a body of background tools capable of generating applications across a range of fields, from engineering to political forecasting. Series: Adaptive and Learning Systems for Signal Processing, Communications and Control Series. Num Pages: 320 pages, Ill. BIC Classification: UYA; UYQN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 242 x 181 x 24. Weight in Grams: 608.
Now, for the first time, publication of the landmark work inbackpropagation! Scientists, engineers, statisticians, operationsresearchers, and other investigators involved in neural networkshave long sought direct access to Paul Werbos's groundbreaking,much-cited 1974 Harvard doctoral thesis, The Roots ofBackpropagation, which laid the foundation of backpropagation. Now,with the publication of its full text, these practitioners can gostraight to the original material and gain a deeper, practicalunderstanding of this unique mathematical approach to socialstudies and related fields. In addition, Werbos has provided threemore recent research papers, which were inspired by his originalwork, and a new guide to the field. Originally written for readerswho lacked ... Read more
