This volume provides students, researchers and application developers with the knowledge and tools to get the most out of using neural networks and related data modelling techniques to solve pattern recognition problems. Each chapter covers a group of related pattern recognition techniques and includes a range of examples to show how these techniques can be applied to solve practical problems. Features of particular interest include:
- A NETLAB toolbox which is freely available
- Worked examples, demonstration programs and over 100 graded exercises
- Cutting edge research made accessible for the first time in a highly usable form
- Comprehensive coverage of visualisation methods, Bayesian techniques for neural networks and Gaussian Processes
Although primarily a textbook for teaching undergraduate and postgraduate courses in pattern recognition and neural networks, this book will also be of interest to practitioners and researchers who can use the toolbox to develop application solutions and new models.
"...provides a unique collection of many of the most important pattern recognition algorithms. With its use of compact and easily modified MATLAB scripts, the book is ideally suited to both teaching and research."

"...provides a unique collection of many of the most important pattern recognition algorithms. With its use of compact and easily modified MATLAB scripts, the book is ideally suited to both teaching and research."

"If you have a pattern recognition problem, you should consider NETLAB; if you use NETLAB you must have this book." Keith Worden, University of Sheffield, UK
"Breezing through the elementary algorithms, Nabney takes readers on a tour of the more sophisticated approaches used by real practitioners. ... It is an invaluable resource for the serious student of neural networks."
David S. Touretzky, Computer Science Department, Carnegie Mellon University, US
"Anyone who intends to use Matlab for pattern recognition and related neural computing applications will benefit from this book. It provides a valuable insight into the methods used within the NETLAB toolbox and serves as a useful reference."
Steve King, Strategic Research Centre, Rolls-Royce plc., UK
"The book aims to provide readers with the knowledge and tools to get the most out of neural networks ... . A series of worked examples and illustrative demonstration programs are also supplied helping the reader to understand the algorithms ... . The book provides an excellent collection of the most important algorithms in pattern recognition. The book can be used as a textbook for teaching undergraduate and postgraduate courses in pattern recognition but it also proves extremely worthy to practitioners and researchers ... ." (Luminita State, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1011, 2003)
"In this book, Ian Nabney provides a well-organized description of NETLAB along with plenty of demonstration programs, worked examples and exercises. ... Throughout the book, the author strictly follows a uniform style in each chapter. ... I think the unification of the style can increase the readability of the book. ... The most benefited readers may be the researchers in the same area. Through this book, they can easily find the algorithms they are interested in and use the algorithms for their own purpose." (Lu Zhang, Expert Update, Vol. 5 (3), 2002)
“The book is solely dedicated to explaining the theoretical background of ... NETLAB. ... mainly presents the algorithms of the functions, their MATLAB program, the formulas used and the required inputs from the users in order to use the functions. ... an excellent list of references is included at the end of the book. ... useful as an illustrative reference when used with the actual software, but also containing enough scientific explanations and theory to be considered a good reference book alone.” (Eleazar Jimenez Serrano, IAPR Newsletter, January, 2011)

on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, has taken possession of the last goods, provided that you have ordered several goods within the framework of a single order and these are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, has taken possession of the last partial shipment or the last piece, provided that you have ordered goods that are delivered in several partial shipments or pieces;
In order to exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (AHA-BUCH GmbH, Garlebsen 48, 37574 Einbeck, telephone number: 05563 9996039, fax number: 05563 9995974, e-mail address: service@aha-buch.de) of your decision to revoke this contract by means of a clear declaration (e.B. a letter sent by post, fax or e-mail). You can use the attached model withdrawal form, but this is not mandatory.
To comply with the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification of the exercise of the right of revocation before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of revocation
If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse you all payments that we have received from you, including delivery costs (with the exception of the additional costs resulting from the fact that you have chosen a different type of delivery than the cheapest standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within fourteen days from the day on which we received the notification of your revocation of this contract.
