Neural Network FAQ
- jgershen 16y agoSorry about the Google cache; HN won't let you submit FTP links. This was written by Warren S. Sarle from 1997-2002. I ran into it while trying to look for papers on benchmarking neural networks. I highly recommend it for its frank and accessible style.
- gjm11 16y agoPart 2 of that FAQ (which regrettably seems not to be in the Google cache) links to another piece by Warren Sarle, which I consider to be the best description anywhere of a wide variety of optimization methods (some but not all specific to neural networks): http://www.creative.net.au/mirrors/neural/kangaroos http://www.creative.net.au/mirrors/neural/kangaroos .
