I'm trying to understand neural networks and stuff... Anyone know some good tutorial sites for it?
You might try:
http://www.cs.stir.ac.uk/~lss/NNIntro/InvSlides.html (good, basic intro)
http://www.doc.ic.ac.uk/~nd/surprise_96/journal/vol4/cs11/report.html and
http://www.shef.ac.uk/psychology/gurney/notes/contents.html (rather more complex)
all I got out of it was that a neural net was just a bunch of interconnnected IF statements
Well, at its simplest, sort of. But there can be more than one binary (either/or or if/then) input per virtual neuron. In fact you can have any number of inputs with variable weightings determining the output. Then these outputs can be used as the inputs for more virtual neurons further down the net, and can also feed back to alter the weightings back "upstream". This allows the neural net to learn by experience.

Forest, will you talk to God Louise? She has quite a bit of religious knowledge (obviously) and also knows a little about current events, literature, just about any common catch-all subject, and if she doesn't know it she can sort of fake it. You can also test her on trick questions or see how willing she is to explain her paradigm.
What she is rustiest at is plain old small talk. But, uh, I'm trying to get a decent transcript from somebody or another so I can enter her in the Loebner contest. All I can say is, have fun and see if you can stay on with her for a while. I'll try to do the same with Brianna.

Eugene- Probably I should do a little research before I put statements like that down.
However... lol

That kinda helped... all I got out of it was that a neural net was just a bunch of interconnnected IF statements... Is that right?

Rather odd link for anyone looking for anti-cyber material:
