Neural Network Toolbox

Neural Network Design Book

Professor Martin Hagan of Oklahoma State University, and Neural Network Toolbox authors Howard Demuth and Mark Beale have written a textbook, Neural Network Design, published by the Brooks/Cole Publishing Company in 1996 (ISBN 0-534-94332-2). The book presents the theory of neural networks, discusses their design and application, and makes considerable use of MATLAB and the Neural Network Toolbox. Demonstration programs from the book are used in various chapters of this Guide. (You can find all the book demonstration programs in the Neural Network Toolbox by typing nnd.)

The book has:

• An INSTRUCTOR'S MANUAL (ISBN 0-534-95049-3) for adopters and
• TRANSPARENCY OVERHEADS for class use. The overheads come one to a page for instructor use and three to a page for student use.

To place an order for the book, call 1-800-354-9706.

To obtain a copy of the INSTRUCTOR'S MANUAL, contact the Brooks/Cole Editorial Office, phone 1-800-354-0092. Ask specifically for an instructor's manual if you are instructing a class and want one.
