Rezensionen

"Several chapters deal with standard questions like control, synchronization, and estimation. Rigatos uses a clever linearization technique, and then applies variants of linear control techniques to solve these problems for nonlinear models. ... I recommend this book to those interested in neural nets who won't be put off by the density of the mathematics." (Paul Cull, Computing Reviews, December, 2014)
