Artificial Neural Networks

With the development of the discipline of Software Engineering, modern and highly intelligent mechanisms are required to succeed in Software Engineering. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are an important new development of Software Engineering as these are computing systems that emerged from biological neural networks of animal brains, which are based on collections of artificial neurons.

In this unit, together with Artificial Neural Networks II, students learn how these systems progressively enhance performance levels to achieve tasks by considering examples, generally in the absence of task-specific programming. Java is one of the most preferred languages for artificial neural network programming due to the ease of writing code and because popular neural network packages already exist in Java. Consequently, Java is a versatile programming language for neural networks. The Neural Network Programming unit provides students a complete walkthrough of the mechanism of developing basic as well as advanced practical software coding projects based on neural networks with the Java programming language, synthesising the knowledge of Mathematics and the powerful concepts of Object Oriented
