ED - SpringerLink (Online service) TI - Issues in the Use of Neural Networks in Information Retrieval T2 - Studies in Computational Intelligence, SN - 9783319438719 U1 - 006.3 23 PY - 2017/// CY - Cham PB - Springer International Publishing, Imprint: Springer KW - Computer Engineering KW - Computational Intelligence KW - Artificial Intelligence, Pattern Recognition KW - Mathematical Models of Cognitive Processes and Neural Networks N2 - This book highlights the ability of neural networks (NNs) to be excellent pattern matchers and their importance in information retrieval (IR), which is based on index term matching. The book defines a new NN-based method for learning image similarity and describes how to use fuzzy Gaussian neural networks to predict personality. It introduces the fuzzy Clifford Gaussian network, and two concurrent neural models: (1) concurrent fuzzy nonlinear perceptron modules, and (2) concurrent fuzzy Gaussian neural network modules. Furthermore, it explains the design of a new model of fuzzy nonlinear perceptron based on alpha level sets and describes a recurrent fuzzy neural network model with a learning algorithm based on the improved particle swarm optimization method UR - https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-43871-9 ER -
