Abstract: |
An enhanced neural network shell for application programs is disclosed. The user is prompted to enter in non-technical information about the specific problem type that the user wants solved by a neural network. The user also is prompted to indicate the input data usage information to the neural network. Based on this information, the neural network shell creates a neural network data structure by automatically selecting an appropriate neural network model and automatically generating an appropriate number of inputs, outputs, and/or other model-specific parameters for the selected neural network model. The user is no longer required to have expertise in neural network technology to create a neural network data structure.

What is claimed is:
1. A method of creating a neural network data structure for a neural network, comprising the machine executed steps of:
- prompting a user for a problem type;
- prompting said user for an input data file, said input data file having an input data format;
- selecting a neural network model based on said problem type and said input data format;
- prompting said user for input data usage information; and
- creating said neural network data structure for said neural network model selected by said selecting step based on said input data usage information.
