Preface

Both pattern recognition and machine learning belong to the most advanced areas of software science. Numeric methods combined with artificial intelligence techniques have been especially successful for pattern recognition. Research in the area of learning is now recognized as a basic part of software science as well as having application to knowledge acquisition in artificial intelligence systems and contributing to understanding human cognition. We wrote this book to provide a basic knowledge of pattern recognition, learning notions, and the models and learning of neural networks.

This book has the following three properties:

(1) It explains both recognition using a computer and the basic methods of learning in one book.

(2) The first ...
