Natural Language Semantics

Tuesday, April 29th, 2003

Dealing with natural language and parsing sentences to extract meaning can be tricky. This tutorial explains one way of dealing with the problem using lambda calculus. There are many possible applications of such techniques, including bots that can understand orders.

Evolutionary Neural Networks: Design Methodologies

Monday, March 24th, 2003

NN and genetic algorithms are both abstractions of natural processes, formulated into a computational model to harness the learning power and adaptive capabilities of both approaches. So called ‘adaptive learning’ demonstrates complex and purposeful behaviour thanks to the EA.
