Neural Networks and Statistical Learning

“Neural networks and statistical learning, has a lot to contribute. This comprehensive, well-organized and up-to-date text proves that the subject matter is richer when the topics of neural networks and statistical learning are studied together. Ideas drawn from both areas are hybridized to perform improved learning tasks beyond the capability of each, which is ideal for professional engineers, research scientists or graduate students. … the book is both a great read and a great resource.” (Dragos Calitoiu, Mathematical Reviews, May, 2015)
