Diagramofrecurrentneuralnetwork are achieved by the network, and the corresponding process is called learningor training. As stated in [WF05], training is the mindless kind of learning. In this dissertation, they are assumed to be equivalent. A more formal defi- nitionof learning isgiven in [Hay98]: Learning is a process by which the free paramters of a neural network are adapted through a process of stimulation by the en- vironment inwhich thenetwork is embedded . Accordingtothedefinition,all freeparameters inneuralnetworkscan be modified during learning. There are mainly two types of learning. Oneissimilarwiththeprocessmentionedinthelastparagraph,where the topology of the network is fixed and only weights are adjusted. The second type of learning involves the modification of the topol- ogy of the neural network [SM04] [EUDC07]. It increases the num- ber of nodes in hidden layers and evolves weights of each link at the same time, according to predefined principles until the performance 70
