Metaheuristic Procedures for Training Neural Networks (Paperback, Softcover reprint of hardcover 1st ed. 2006)

This book provides successful implementations of metaheuristic methods for neural network training. It is the first book to achieve this objective. Moreover, the basic principles and fundamental ideas given in the book will allow the readers to create successful training methods on their own. Overall, the book's aim is to provide a broad coverage of the concepts, methods, and tools of the important area of ANNs within the realm of continuous optimization.
