Neural Networks: Algorithms and Applications

Rating:
Summary: Disappointing, poorly written.
Review: I am so sorry I bought this book.
The English is awful! Missing articles and prepositions are the rule, and it's full of cumbersome sentences.
Just to write this review, I opened the book randomly a few times:
"Those units calculating trajectories can be classified into four type; plan units, state units, ..." [p146]
"...neural networks can be used to determine the, similarity of training and testing signals, by comparing ... " [p181]
"The contents of the input are horizontal and vertical forces at the joints of the truss structure of external forces itself." [p159]
"Deeming objective function as giving the energy of r network ..." [p167]
"Above equation ensures that... " [p76]
"...training is given in Appendics." [preface]

With that said, 90% of the "C++ code" belongs to a quick tutorial on OOP, and the remaining 10% is of little help, if any.

Finally, most topics are covered in less than 5 pages, including pictures and samples.
