A backpropagation simulator, bps, is available from gmuvax2.gmu.edu via
anonymous ftp. After connecting, cd /nn and take what you find.  This is
a collection of executable code for MS-DOS, VAX/Ultrix, Sun 3, &
Macintoshes. There's also a user tutorial and information about source
code availability. The simulator is robust, incorporates a backprop
speedup technique called gradient correlation, allows for user-definable
transfer function range (0 .. M) or (-M/2 .. +M/2), considerable
control over training and testing, etc.
