I am trying to compare the neural net approach to the Bayesian Net approach (by Judea Pearl). Has anyone worked on this before? Is it true that single layer neural nets can perform similar to Bayesian belief networks, and if so has anyone done some theoretical work on it. Any pointers and/or suggested readings would be appreciated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _ __ _ _ _ __ __ _ __ ' ) ) ' ) / ' ) ) / ` ' ) ) internet- rupen@csd4.csd.uwm.edu /--' / / /--' /-- / / bitnet- rupen%csd4.csd.uwm.edu@INTERBIT / \_ (__/ / (___, / (_ uucp- >internet:rupen@csd4.csd.uwm.edu
