Theoretical Aspects of Neural Computation: A Multidisciplinary Perspective : International Workshop (TANC'97) Hong Kong, 26-28 May 1997 (1998 ed.)

Over the past decade or so, neural computation has emerged as a research area with active involvement by researchers from a number of different disciplines, including computer science, engineering, mathematics, neurobiology, physics, and statistics.

The workshop brought together researchers with a diverse background to review the current status of neural computation research.

Three aspects of neural computation have been emphasized: neuroscience aspects, computational and Mathematical aspects, and statistical physics aspects.

This book contains 28 contributions from frontier researchers in these fields.

Thoroughly re-edited, and in some cases revised post-workshop, these papers collated into this review volume provide a top-class reference summary of the state-of-the-art work done in this field.
