   Fellow Neural Netters,

   I am working on implementing a neural net algorithm and am
in search of test data with which I can compare my results.

   I have met with some success in training the net to classify
sample patterns from a 2-d XOR domain, and from a 7-d character 
recognition domain with noise (LED digits).  I am now looking for 
a standard multi-dimensional,  real-valued domain.  I am
looking for some recognized/published domain and would prefer some 
synthetic dataset where I can generate small sample sets for training
and larger/more complete sets for testing.
   If some data bank can be made available to me or if you can
offer any pointers to what I am looking for, your help would
be greatly appreciated.  

   Sincerely,

   Mike Otten
