NEURAL NETWORKS, THE FUTURE of COMPUTER SCIENCE

In a few years or even decades, a major evolution will happen in the world of computing:
This
will be the era of neural networks, which, like the human brain, will
simulate it thanks to what are now called artificial neural networks.
I worked a lot in this area, especially with the help of Professor Yves Burnod from the University of Paris VI.
It
is striking that it is possible to simulate and program neural networks
whose behavior is close to the faculties of the human brain:
- By their learning facilities
- In
order to give responses to complex problems, such as car driving,
industry porcesses, and more generally the whole real world computing
problem.. All these problems can't be solved by classic deterministic
programs.
It
is therefore very likely that in the near future neural programs will
complete our classic deterministic algorithms-based programs.
I
realized a few years ago a small program that simulates a network of
neurons based on radial functions (Radial basis functions or RBF) that
learns to recognize forms.
