β¦ Synopsis
In this work we use the continuous Hopfield network and the continuous bidirectional associative memory system (BAM) in order to develop two novel methodsJbr structural analysis. The development of these techniques is based on the analogous relationship that results J?om comparing the eneryy functions of the above two models with that of the structural displacement method (i.e. the so-called stiffness matrix method) and it takes advantage o.1 the fact that classical numerical methods do not have the characteristics of parallel computation that art(ficial neural networks have. Several examples related to structural deJormation are used to illustrate the superiority of the BAM-based neural networks over other traditional numerical methods and the Hopfield model, especially for the case of large dimensional st(ffhess matrices.

Wide attention was recently given to the problem of fault-tolerance in neural networks; while most authors dealt with aspects related to specific VLSI implementations, attention was also given to the intrinsic capacity of survival to faults characterizing the neural modes. The present paper tackles
## Background: In histological preparations containing debris and synthetic materials, it is difficult to automate cell counting using standard image analysis tools, i.e., systems that rely on boundary contours, histogram thresholding, etc. in an attempt to mimic manual cell recognition, an automat
The dream of capturing the power of the human brain using the devices of modern technology has long held strong appeal in more than academic circles. The advantages bestowed on the owner of such technology are enormous. The ubiquitousness and indispensability of the digital computer attests to its i
## Abstract Metallic complexes of multimetal and multiligand systems are complicated for calculating equilibrium concentrations in solutions. An artificial neural network has been developed for studying Al^3+^ and EDTA complexes in solution with an initial concentration of 0.01 mol L^β1^ for these
