Connectionism: A Hands-on Approach

Connectionism: A Hands-on Approach
Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Limited | ISBN: 1405128070 | edition 2005 | PDF | 208 pages | 1,73 mb

CONNNECTIONISM is a "hands on" introduction to connectionist modeling. Three different types of connectionist architectures - distributed associative memory, perceptron, and multilayer perceptron - are explored. In an accessible style, Dawson provides a brief overview of each architecture, a detailed introduction on how to use a program to explore this network, and a series of practical exercises that are designed to highlight the advantages, and disadvantages, of each and to provide a "road map" to the field of cognitive modeling.

This book is designed to be used as a stand-alone volume, or alongside Minds and Machines: Connectionism and Psychological Modeling (Blackwell Publishing, 2004). An accompanying website is available at bcp.psych.ualberta.ca and includes practice exercises and software, as well as the files and blank exercise sheets that are required for performing the exercises.
