Start learning Write review

Learn neural network programming fundamentals using the C# programming language through this comprehensive 16-class video series spanning nearly 7 hours of instruction. Master essential concepts starting with matrix mathematics, weight matrices, and threshold neurons before progressing to advanced topics like Hopfield networks, feedforward backpropagation, and the XOR problem. Explore optimization techniques including genetic algorithms for neural network training, simulated annealing for solving the traveling salesman problem, and various pruning methods for network optimization. Dive into practical applications such as temporal prediction using sine waves, stock market forecasting, and forest cover classification. Gain hands-on experience implementing activation functions, hidden layers, backpropagation algorithms, and root mean square calculations. Build real-world projects including a tic-tac-toe neural network and develop skills in both supervised and unsupervised learning approaches. Note that this content is from 2009, and a more recent version of the course is available for those seeking updated material.
