In this chapter, we use neural networks for the classification of objects. Classification is the task of recognizing various objects and determining the class that those objects belong to. As with many areas of artificial intelligence, classification is easily done by humans, while being quite difficult for computers.

Example: Classification of Records

Listing 10-1 shows five books, and each book belongs to a different area of human knowledge: medical, programming, engineering, ...
