  Neural Networks
Neural networks, with their remarkable ability to derive meaning from complicated or imprecise data, can be used to extract patterns and detect trends that are too complex to be noticed by either humans or other computer techniques.
The commonest type of artificial neural network consists of three groups, or layers, of units: a layer of "input" units is connected to a layer of "hidden" units, which is connected to a layer of "output" units.
Neural networks were used to discover the influence of undefined interactions by the various variables.

  Neural network - Encyclopedia.WorldSearch   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
In a neural network model, simple nodes (or "neurons", or "units") are connected together to form a network of nodes — hence the term "neural network".
Neural networks are particularly useful for dealing with bounded real-valued data, where a real-valued output is desired; in this way neural networks will perform classification by degrees, and are capable of expressing values equivalent to "not sure".
The genome is then constituted of the networks parameters and the fitness of a network is the adequacy of the behaviour exhibited by the controlled robot (or often by a simulation of this behaviour).

 Neural Networks & Connectionist Systems
Neural models of intelligence emphasize the brain's ability to adapt to the world in which it is situated by modifying the relationships between individual neurons.
Neural networks are usually characterized in terms of the number and types of connections between individual processing elements, called neurons, and the learning rules used when data is presented to the network.
Neural networks, unlike fuzzy logic, seek to reproduce the versatility of the human brain in recognizing the end-to-end, input-to-output behavior of a system without understanding all the processes taking place within it.

 Neural networks - Science Articles :: Physics Post
Each node in the next layer then receives a value which is the sum of the values produced by the connections leading into it, and in each node a simple computation is performed on the value - a sigmoid function is typical.
If the neural network is trained using the cross-entropy error function (see Bishop's book) and if the neural network output has a sigmoidal non-linear, then the outputs will be estimates of the true posterior probability of a class.
The genome is then constitued of the networks parameters and the fitness of a network is the adequacy of the behaviour exhibited by the controlled robot (or often by a simulation of this behaviour).

 AIEVOLUTION   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The neural networks of the human brain are almost to complex to comprehend: let alone re-create it in silicon microprocessors.
Neural networks are a simulation of the processes of the human brain.
Neural networks can be built to solve specific problems, but they are most useful for their ability to learn.

 Mind and Machine : Neural networks
Each unit or node is a simplified model of a real neuron which fires (sends off a new signal) if it receives a sufficiently strong input signal from the other nodes to which it is connected.
The strength of these connections may be varied in order for the network to perform different tasks corresponding to different patterns of node firing activity.
Neural networks are very different - they are composed of many rather feeble processing units which are connected into a network.

 An introduction to neural networks
Limiting ourselves to nets with no hidden nodes, but possibly having more than one output node, let p be an element in a training set, and t(p,n) be the corresponding target of output node n.
When output nodes take their inputs from hidden nodes, and the net finds that it is in error, its weight adjustments require an algorithm that will pick out how much the various nodes contributed to its overall error.

 Graphical Models
Hidden nodes are nodes whose values are not known, and are depicted as unshaded; observed nodes (the ones we condition on) are shaded.
Finally, consider the case in which we have one incoming and outgoing arrow to X. It is intuitive that the nodes upstream and downstream of X are dependent iff X is hidden, because conditioning on a node breaks the graph at that point.
Of course, interpreting the ``meaning'' of hidden nodes is always tricky, especially since they are often unidentifiable, e.g., we can often switch the interpretation of the true and false states (assuming for simplicity that the hidden node is binary) provided we also permute the parameters appropriately.

 FAQ's about neural networks to predict prostate cancer
For example, our lymph node spread model was developed using data from thousands of patients who had surgery to remove their prostates at the Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions.
Finally, a number emerges at the output node with a value that depends on the input values and the weights assigned to each interconnection.
Further, this model is designed to predict the risk of lymph node spread in men with clinically localized prostate cancer only (not for advanced disease or for men who have not been diagnosed with prostate cancer).

It is a system that is alive, whether or not it possesses all the attributes needed for an organism.''[11, page 84] Gaia is not only alive but it is coming to have a mind, thanks to the Internet and other networking technologies.
There is a sense in which a global mind also emerges in a network culture.
Our primary difficulty in comprehending the global mind of a network culture will be that it does not have a central ``I'' to appeal to.
