Introduction to Neural Networks with C#, Second Edition

Coming Late October, 2008!

Other Sites

• Neural Networks in PHP - This site has some Neural network examples in the PHP programming language.

Other Stuff I Programmed

I will be putting more up here as it becomes stable.
These are a few of my own Neural Network applications.

• Hopfield Applet - My Hopfield neural network applet.
• Handwriting Recognition - Handwriting recognition, try it online.

AI Stuff I use from the Net

• WordNet from Princeton - A very advanced lexicon(dictionary) that can be downloaded. This is very useful for natural language processing (NLP).
• JWordNet - A GPL Pure Java interface into the WordNet database.
• Encog for Java - A LGPL Java-based neural network and bot API.
• Encog for DotNet - A LGPL DotNet-based neural network and bot API. Written in C#, but can be used in any DotNet language.

My AI Articles

• Programming Neural Networks in Java - An article I did for Java Developer's Journal about how to program neural networks in Java. This program shows how to do some basic OCR.
• Using JOONE for Artificial Intelligence Programming - A brief introduction to the Java Object Oriented Neural Engine. This is a GNU style Neural Network library for Java.
