All the used materials, references to the literature and the work of others have been referred to. This thesis has not been presented for examination anywhere else. Author: Nikolai Jefimov 30.05.2017 3 Abstract The aim of this thesis is to present opportunities on implementations of spiking neural network for image recognition and proving learning algorithms in MATLAB environment. In this thesis provided examples of the use of common types of artificial neural networks for image recognition and classification. Also presented spiking neural network areas of use, as well as the principles of image recognition by this type of neural network. The result of this work is the realization of the learning algorithm in MATLAB environment, as well as the ability to recognize handwritten numbers from the MNIST database. Besides this presented the opportunity to recognizing Latin letters with dimensions of 3x3 and 5x7 pixels. In addition, were proposed User Guide for masters course ISS0023 Intelligent Control System in TUT.

  • World Latin American Agenda 2010
    World Latin American Agenda 2010 In its category, the Latin American book most widely distributed inside and outside the Americas each year. A sign of continental and global commuion among individual and communities excited by and commited to the Great Causes of the Patria Grande. An Agenda that expresses the hope of the world’s poor from a Latin American perspective. A manual for creating a different kind of globalization. A collection of the historical memories of militancy. An anthology of solidarity and creativity. A pedagogical tool for popular education, communication and social action. From the Great Homeland Digital English-Spanish Edition Printable by «Digital Printing» Our Cover image: «Let Us Save Ourselves Along with Our PLanet», of Maximino CEREZO BARREDO It was only 40 years ago that the Earth could be seen for the first time from outside, from space. Its image not only left us speechless, dazzled by its beauty; a transformation of awareness took place throughout humanity. The image of the planet was worth more than a million words and reflections. It became evident that we were embarked on a single and unique spaceship, hanging on to it and united with its destiny. But in only a few years that beauty has been transformed into anguish in the face of a planet with increasing signs of heating up, of fatigue, of incapacity to absorb our growing impact. Have we reached a moment when we need to take on a responsible way of co-piloting this ship? This 2010 Agenda presents this urgent, and extremely demanding theme that cannot be put off any longer.
