This title records what happened when, in February 2002, the author and then his wife had computer chips placed into their nervous systems, linked to a computer. Can their emotions and experiences be read and recorded and beamed back into the chips so that feelings can be re-experienced?
Following an introduction to neural network technology, this study explores recent research developments in the field. The topics discussed include electronic speech and vision, the fundamentals and applications of neural control, the application of neural networks to process control, and more.
This volume is based upon the 2nd IEEE European Workshop on Computer-Intensive Methods in Control and Signal Processing, subtitled "Can We Beat the Curse of Dimensionality?", held in Prague, August 1996. The book brings together a blend of approaches to a common theme from a variety of international research groups in engineering. The 18 ...
