Connectionist Models of Development Developmental Processes in Real and Artificial Neural Networks

Connectionist Models of Development is an edited collection of essays on the current work concerning connectionist or neural network models of human development. The brain comprises millions of nerve cells that share myriad connections, and this book looks at how human development in these systems i...
