JavaNNS (Java Neural Simulator)

Neural network simulators are software applications that are used to simulate the behavior of artificial or biological neural networks. They focus on one or a limited number of specific types of neural networks. They are typically stand-alone and not intended to produce general neural networks that can be integrated in other software. Simulators usually have some form of built-in visualization to monitor the training process. Some simulators also visualize the physical structure of the neural network.

Historically, the most common type of neural network software was intended for researching neural network structures and algorithms. The primary purpose of this type of software is to, through simulation, gain a better understanding of the behavior and properties of neural networks. Today in the study of artificial neural networks, simulators have largely been replaced by more general component based development environments as research platforms.

Commonly used artificial neural network simulators include the Stuttgart Neural Network Simulator (SNNS), Emergent, JavaNNS and Neural Lab.

I'm going to talk about de Java Neutral Simulator (JavaNNS)

This neural network simulator originally developed at the Wilhelm-Schickard-Institute for Computer Science (WSI) in Tübingen, Germany. It`s development in java, gives a nice user interface, allowing the user creating a interesting neural networks.

JavaNNS is written around a simulation kernel to which user written activation functions, learning procedures and output functions can be added. It has support for arbitrary network topologies and the standard release contains support for a number of standard neural network architectures and training algorithms.
