Bernard Widrow carried out the pioneering research for neural networks at Stanford University in the 1950s. This technology requires massive computer capacity and, for that reason, practical applications have been limited. However, neural networks are fascinating. Imagine computers that function the way scientists think the brain functions! "An Introduction to Neural Networks" by Leslie Smith at www.cs.stir.ac.uk/~lss/NNIntro/InvSlides.html provides a good place to begin exploring this technology. At www.cacs.usl.edu/~manaris/ai-education-repository/ neural-n-tutorial.html, you'll find tutorials on neural networks. You can, of course, enter "neural network" in any search engine to find additional information.
