Artificial Neural Networks in Engineering Education (original) (raw)

The human brain and related concepts such as learning, knowledge and computing are discussed. The Artificial Neural Network (ANN) paradigm is introduced as a model of computing. Some aspects of the brain and a neural network such as knowledge representation are discussed. Some small prototypes of artificial neural networks systems, like a pattern recognition system, an associative memory system and a natural language processing (NLP) system are introduced. All the ANN systems are simulated on a PCplatform.
