The metaphorical brain 2 - neural networks and beyond (2. ed.)

From the Publisher: Shows how highly distributed cooperative computation deepens our understanding of the human mind/brain and catalyzes the development of computing machinery. Using metaphors to describe the brain, distributed interactions are depicted that underlie intelligence in the human, animal, or machine (robot). Covers basic ideas about neural networks, both artificial and biological. Models are provided to show how the brain works, and the schemas which mediate our perception, knowledge, and action.
