Neural Networks and Analog Computation

Humanity''s most basic intellectual quest to decipher nature and master it has led to numerous efforts to build machines that simulate the world or communi­ cate with it [Bus70, Tur36, MP43, Sha48, vN56, Sha41, Rub89, NK91, Nyc92]. The computational power and dynamic behavior of such machines is a central question for mathematicians, computer scientists, and occasionally, physicists. Our interest ...
