Systems With Learning and Memory Abilities

A comparison of the properties of various systems which have learning and memory abilities, this book is of a multidisciplinary nature. Artificial Intelligence specialists, mathematicians, physicists, biochemists, neuroscientists and psychologists are among the contributors. Divided into five sections, the first considers learning and memory at the behavioral level, while the second is a continuation of this, dealing with neural bases. The third also illustrates a continuity, that between neurobiology and ``basic biology''. The last two sections are both concerned with models of learning and memory, one inspired or constrained mainly by biological facts and the other by physics.
