International Survey of the Neural Network Research Community: Preliminary Report (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from International Survey of the Neural Network Research Community: Preliminary Report
In order to identify the first two phases of the community's evolution, a graph is made of the cumulative number of respondents over time as indicated by their year of entry (see figure The graph shows both the cumulative number of respondents in the field (on the left axis) and cumulative percent (on the right axis). It clearly illustrates the rapid growth in the field, which began about 1984. About 25% of the respondents entered the field prior to 1984, whereas about 75% entered from 1984 to 1990. In accordance with the phase model presented in the introduction, in the subsequent analysis the period from 1950 - 1983 will be designated as Phase I, or the bootlegging phase; and the period from 1984-1990 will be designated as Phase II, or the bandwagon phase.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolution and development of research communities within the field of neural networks, a field inspired by theories of neurological processes in biological organisms. The author examines the sociological dimensions of the research community, focusing on two distinct phases: the "bootlegging" phase and the "bandwagon" phase. The book analyzes the characteristics, attitudes, and behaviors of researchers who enter the field during each phase and their underlying motivations and factors influencing their entry and exit decisions. Through a survey of 710 researchers, the author uncovers significant differences between "bootleggers" (those who enter during the early, underfunded phase) and "bandwagoners" (those who enter during the rapid growth phase). Delving into the thematic depth of these phases, the book sheds light on the challenges and opportunities faced by researchers in each phase, including funding availability, peer recognition, and perceived progress. The author also explores the factors that contribute to the transition between phases, providing insights into the dynamics of research community evolution. Ultimately, this book offers valuable perspectives on the nature of scientific research, particularly the role of individual researchers and the influence of social and economic factors on the development and institutionalization of new technologies. Its insights are not only relevant to the field of neural networks but also have broader implications for understanding the evolution of scientific communities in general. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
