Eighth International Work-Conference on Artificial and Natural Neural Networks
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Workshop on Artificial Neural Networks, IWANN 2005, held in Vilanova i la Geltrú, Barcelona, Spain in June 2005. The 150 revised papers presented - including the contribution of three invited speakers - were carefully reviewed and selected from 240 submissions for inclusion in the book and address the following topics: mathematical and theoretical methods, evolutionary computation, neurocomputational inspired models, learning and adaptation, radial basic functions structures, self-organizing networks and methods, support vector machines, cellular neural networks, hybrid systems, neuroengineering and hardware implementations, pattern recognition, perception and robotics and applications in a broad variety of fields.
