As well as providing a consistent framework for statistical pattern recognition, the Bayesian approach offers a number of practical advantages including a solution to the problem of over-fitting. This article provides an introductory overview of the application of Bayesian methods to neural networks. It assumes the reader is familiar with standard feed-forward neural network models and how to train them using conventional techniques.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/bayesian-neural-networks/}, pages = {61-68}, journal = {Journal of the Brazilian Computer Society}, volume = {1}, edition = {Journal of the Brazilian Computer Society}, number = {4}, note = {Special issue on neural networks}, }
