Tiziano Squartini · CNR Solar (Scientific Open-access Literature Archive and Repository) (Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche) · 2007
Neural networks can be defined in a variety of ways. Biology, informatics, mathematics, physics: each discipline gave its own definition. We will try to explain what neural networks are and why they are so useful. The paper is divided in two parts: in the first one preliminary definitions are given and general properties are illustrated. In the second part structures and dynamics of a number of networks are analyzed.
