Editorial Review: This timely overview and synthesis of recent work in both artificial neural networks and neurobiology seeks to examine neurobiological data from a network perspective and to encourage neuroscientists to participate in constructing the next generation of neural networks. Individual chapters were commissioned from selected authors to bridge the gap between present neural network models and the needs of neurophysiologists who are trying to use these models as part of their research on how the brain works.

Rating: - Artifical Neural Networks from a real neural perspective
A variety of interesting articles concerning the neurobiology of neural networks. For example, one article by Gardner is "Static Determinants of Synaptic Strength". Although backpropagation as used in artificial neural networks is unlikely to be used by biological nervous systems, it is shown both in the buccal ganglia of Aplysia that synaptic strengths can be specified by postsynaptic neurons. As well, in the mammalian hippocampus, nitric oxide (NO) and arachidonic acid may serve as retrograde ... Read More
