Abstract

This paper starts by placing neural net techniques in a general nonlinear control framework. After that, several basic theoretical results on networks are surveyed.

Research described here partially supported by US Air Force Grant AFOSR-91-0343. This paper was written in part while visiting Siemens Corporate Research, Priceton.
