Though there have been numerous techniques used for their implementations, the choice of a specific implementation is subjected to different factors including cost, accuracy, processing speed and overall performance. Featured with synaptic plasticity, the process of training is concerned with adjusting the individual weights between each of the individual ANN neurons until we can achieve close to the desired output. This book introduces the common trajectory-driven and evolutionary-based ANN training algorithms.Computer networks series.Novinka.Neural networks (Computer science)Neural networks (Computer science)006.3/2Kattan Ali1861271Abdullah Rosni1861272Geem Zong Woo1133777MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910957230303321Artificial neural network training and software implementation techniques4467362UNINA04446oam 2200553K 450 991095693540332120251116172240.01-000-71161-71-000-71123-40-429-33019-7(CKB)4100000009587690(MiAaPQ)EBC5939492(OCoLC)1123193524(OCoLC)1123229870(OCoLC-P)1123193524(FlBoTFG)9780429330193(EXLCZ)99410000000958769020191016d2019 ky 0engurcnu|||unuuutxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierDevelopment banks and sustainability in the Andean Amazon /edited by Rebecca Ray, Kevin P.

In their own time, on their own terms: Improving development bank project outcomes through community-centered sustainable development partnerships in the Brazilian Amazon Julie Michelle KlingerThis book explores what development banks, governments, and communities have learned in the last decade of careful negotiation between social and environmental protections in the Andean Amazon, and the pressures of a surging infrastructure and development boom. While mega-dams, highways, and ports are filling up the pipelines of planners, the national governments of Andean and Amazon-basin countries and major development banks have enacted ambitious social and environmental protections. The book traces the development of social and environmental protections after years of struggle by affected communities, going beyond official policies to discover how these reforms work in practice, and ultimately whether they are enough to stem the risks of infrastructure mega-projects. As Chinese public banks play an increasingly important role in the region, the book also demonstrates that there is a risk of governments undercutting their own standards. By contrast, this book shows that making infrastructure work for everyone involved requires mutually reinforcing networks of support and accountability among communities, governments, and development banks. This book, led by an expert multi-disciplinary, international team, will be of considerable interest to researchers in the fields of development and development economics, geography, anthropology, and ecology, as well as practitioners in development banks and in government regulatory and foreign aid agencies.Routledge studies in Latin American development.Sustainable developmentAmazon River RegionDevelopment banksAmazon River RegionEnvironmental policyAmazon River RegionSustainable developmentDevelopment banksEnvironmental policy338.981107Ray RebeccaGallagher Kevin1968-Sanborn CynthiaOCoLC-POCoLC-PBOOK9910956935403321Development banks and sustainability in the Andean Amazon4483434UNINA
