Overview
What's new in v2000
The Qnet v2000 Software Package

Overview

Vesta Services, Inc. is now releasing Qnet v2000 for Windows, the complete solution for backpropagation neural network modeling under Windows. Qnet v2000 combines exceptional value with unmatched performance and functionality. The Qnet neural network development system is designed for use with all current Windows OS's. Qnet's performance soars with highly optimized floating point operations. Qnet offers virtually unrestricted model sizes and now makes it easier than ever to train, maintain and implement large numbers of Qnet models.

What's new in v2000

  1. AutoTrain/AutoProcess your Qnet models. Ideal for training and maintaining a large number of Qnet neural networks. This feature allows complete unattended training and optimizing of any number of Qnet models. AutoProcessing lets you return and review your AutoTraining results if desired. This Qnet 2000 feature is a must for anyone who must periodically update or retrain on a regular basis.

  2. Case weighting factors. Rank/weight your training cases for training importance. A great feature for models where you wish to attach greater or lesser significance to your training cases.

  3. Additional updates:

  • Halt training at RMS error

  • Extend runs after the run has reached the max iteration.

  • Improved Learn Rate Control

  • Input Interrogator and hidden node analyzer results are now available from the info menu (text mode)

  • Splash screen turnoff

  • Improved Windows HTML help

The Qnet v2000 Software package:

Qnet v2000 - This is the training/analysis application for Qnet's neural network modeling system. You design your neural network, configure the training data and options, and train and analyze your model. Check out Qnet's features and visit our online documentation to see how easy and simple it is to develop Qnet neural network models.

DataPro - DataPro is designed to simplify training data transfer and setup from spreadsheet applications like Microsoft's Excel to Qnet. Simple copy/paste steps will complete the entire process. Easily setup data labels or apply bounding limits to raw data. A click of the button saves the data for Qnet and configures Qnet with the proper training data information. See the DataPro manual for detailed information.

QnetTool -  QnetTool is designed to give basic access to your Qnet models from common Windows data application (spreadsheet or database applications). Non-programmers can easily configure QnetTool to automatically work with common Windows applications. Qnet includes a sample Excel spreadsheet that shows how a simple button can automatically retrieve your results and place them in your spreadsheet! Automating access to your models is one example of how Qnet helps to make neural network technology part of your everyday functions. Visit the QnetTool manual for detailed operating information.

C-Source and Dll's - More sophisticated applications require programming access to Qnet developed models. The C source library included with Qnet provides access and can easily be used on virtually any hardware platform or operating environment. For Windows based access, Qnet now comes with a 32-bit Dll that can be called directly from popular programming environments like Microsoft's Visual Basic, VC++, etc.

Help and Online Manuals - Complete online documentation. Windows HTML help gives you run time support for virtually every input and option. With Qnet's extensive help system, you can be up and running with a short learning curve. Our PDF manual (requires Acrobat Reader) gives you the full printed documentation online or print to your printer! For those who prefer HTML, you can get help from your browser too. Make sure you have the latest HTML help system (v 1.2 or higher is recommended) for Windows!

Sample Problems - Qnet's sample problems cover building financial forecasting models, data analysis, pattern recognition and more. Qnet's potential application areas are virtually endless (popular neural network applications).
