Disclaimer: I'm not a mathematical genius, nor do I have any experience with writing neural networks. So, please, forgive whatever idiotic things I happen to say here. ;) I've always read about neural networks being used for machine learning, but while experimenting with writing simple virtual machines, I began to wonder if they could b...
Is there a rule of thumb or set of examples to determine when to use Genetic Algorithms versus when to use Neural Networks to solve a problem? I know there are cases in which you can have both methods mixed, but I am looking for a high level reasoning between the two methods. ...
Hello, i was wondering if DS`s hardware is capable of running a game that utilizes a feedforward neural network using genetic algorithms. I know that this has to do with the implementation of the homebrew game as well as the nn and the ga, but i am curious... (i know nothing about how the DS`s ARMs are used, etc, etc, etc) Thanks in ad...
Looking for neuronal network libraries (providing the basic multi-layer-perceptron with back-propagation and possibly teachers) i did find only libraries which seem to come from the 1990s and don't use more modern approaches (stl etc.) or small student projects. Did i miss libraries that you know about? update: Support for mnist would ...
In Matlab (Neural Network Toolbox + Image Processing Toolbox), I have written a script to extract features from images and construct a "feature vector". My problem is that some features have more data than others. I don't want these features to have more significance than others with less data. For example, I might have a feature vecto...
Hi, I don't have so much a question about how to program something, but rather I'm looking for information on a specific programming language that I can't seem to find anywhere. It seems to be referenced in a few papers I'm looking at. The name of the language is "NeuPro" - it would be for working with Neural Networks and appears to h...
I wonder if anyone has some example code of a Neural network in python. If someone know of some sort of tutorial with a complete walkthrough that would be awesome, but just example source would be great as well! Thanks ...
Hi, I've read about neural network a little while ago and I understand how an ANN (especially a multilayer perceptron that learns via backpropagation) can learn to classify an event as true or false. I think there are two ways : 1) You get one output neuron. It it's value is > 0.5 the events is likely true, if it's value is <=0.5 the ...
Can anyone recommend a good open-source .NET neural network library? Thanks! ...
I was looking at the knights tour problem and decided to have a go at implementing it in python using a neural network to find solutions. The general explanation of the method can be found on Wikipedia While I think I have implemented it correctly (I can't see anything else that is wrong), it doesn't work, it updates a few links, remov...
I'd like to know about specific problems you - the SO reader - have solved using artificial neural network techniques and what libraries/frameworks you used if you didn't roll your own. Questions: What problems have you used artificial neural networks to solve? What libraries/frameworks did you use? I'm looking for first-hand exper...
I am trying to approximate the sine() function using a neural network I wrote myself. I have tested my neural network on a simple OCR problem already and it worked, but I am having trouble applying it to approximate sine(). My problem is that during training my error converges on exactly 50%, so I'm guessing it's completely random. I am...
I was trying to find something original and fun to do with artificial neural networks (ANNs) as a personal/learning project and I though it would be cool if I could predict the results of sports games (especially NHL games). I'm pretty sure it would be easy to evolve an ANN that can predict which team is most likely to win (usually the ...
I've got some free time and I'm looking to learn a programming language or two that I can use for computational modeling (I'm in cognitive science & psychology). I'm not sure if I'll end up doing neural nets, machine learning, AI, or something altogether different, so I'm just looking for a good, broad base to start with, like a nudge in...
I'm thinking of writing an app to classify movies in an HTPC based on what the family members like. I don't know statistics or AI, but the stuff here looks very juicy. I wouldn't know where to start do. Here's what I want to accomplish: Compose a set of samples from each users likes, rating each sample attribute separately. For examp...
I don't quite follow scientific papers, so I wanted to take a look at different ART/ARTMAP implementations. I found one in C++. Any others you know? With no background in AI, what are some basics one must cover to be able to fully grasp this theory? Reference: Adaptive resonance theory. ...
I just watched a Google tech talk video covering "Polyworld" (found here) and they talk about breeding two neural networks together to form offspring. My question is, how would one go about combining two neural networks? They seem so different that any attempt to combine them would simply form a third, totally unrelated network. Perha...
Hey all, I want to learn more about AI and neural networks. I have some basic idea what it is and how it works, but I want to find a good book or tutorial with good explanations. Anyone know of some good material ( that is not too technically written ) to read on the subject? C# implementations are also helpful. Tony ...
I'm considering using a neural network to power my enemies in a space shooter game i'm building and i'm wondering; how do you train neural networks when there is no one definitive good set of outputs for the network? ...
I'm doing object detection in c# using emgucv library. But i find it difficult to develop the neural network in c# for detecting the object? Please any body help me about this topic and how to test object in network??? ...
