Message-ID: <6132@rnd.GBA.NYU.EDU> Date: 14 Oct 90 23:23:31 GMT Organization: NYU Stern School of Business Lines: 10 I'm exploring using neural networks for modeling hierarchical decision processes - whether the network can uncover the sequence of attributes or decision variables used on its own without building in a prespecified structure. Also is it posiible to interpret the connection weights in an unstuctured net to understand any relationship between the inputs and outputs ? Any pointers would be appreciated. Send mail to : ssen@rnd.gba.nyu.edu Thanks a lot. S.Sen
