   Founders:
   Dr. Leon Cooper (having a Nobel Prize) and Dr. Charles Elbaum
   (Brown University).

   Neural Network Models:
   Adaptive shape and pattern recognition (Restricted Coulomb Energy - RCE)
   developed by NESTOR is one of the most powerfull Neural Network Model
   used in a later products.

   The basis for NESTOR products is the Nestor Learning System - NLS. Later
   are developed: Character Learning System - CLS and Image Learning System
   - ILS.  Nestor Development System - NDS is a development tool in
   Standard C - a powerfull PC-Tool for simulation and development of
   Neural Networks.

   NLS is a multi-layer, feed forward system with low connectivity within
   each layer and no relaxation procedure used for determining an output
   response.  This unique architecture allows the NLS to operate in real
   time without the need for special computers or custom hardware.

   NLS is composed of multiple neural networks, each specializing in a
   subset of information about the input patterns. The NLS integrates the
   responses of its several parallel networks to produce a system response.

   Minimized connectivity within each layer results in rapid training and
   efficient memory utilization- ideal for current VLSI technology. Intel
   has made such a chip - NE1000.

   Ward Systems Group Product Descriptions: 

    o NeuroShell. Predictor - This product is used for forecasting and
      estimating numeric amounts such as sales, prices, workload, level,
      cost, scores, speed, capacity, etc. It contains two of our newest
      algorithms (neural and genetic) with no parameters for you to have to
      set. These are our most powerful networks. Reads and writes text
      files. 

    o NeuroShell. Classifier - The NeuroShell Classifier solves
      classification and categorization problems based on patterns learned
      from historical data. The Classifier produces outputs that are the
      probabilities of the input pattern belonging to each of several
      categories. Examples of categories include {acidic, neutral,
      alkaline}, {buy, sell, hold}, and {cancer, benign}. Like the
      NeuroShell Predictor, it has the latest neural and genetic classifiers
      with no parameters to set. These are our most powerful networks. It
      also reads and writes text files. 

    o NeuroShell. Run-Time Server - The NeuroShell Run-Time Server allows
      you to distribute networks created with the NeuroShell Predictor or
      NeuroShell Classifier from either a simple interface, from your own
      computer programs, or from Excel spreadsheets. 

    o NeuroShell Trader. - This is the complete product for anyone trading
      stocks, bonds, futures, commodities, currencies, derivatives, etc. It
      works the way you think and work: for example, it reads open, high,
      low, close type price streams. It contains charting, indicators, the
      latest neural nets, trading simulations, data downloading, and walk
      forward testing, all seamlessly working together to make predictions
      for you. The NeuroShell Trader contains our most powerful network
      type. 

    o NeuroShell Trader. Professional - The Professional incorporates the
      original Trader along with the ability to optimize systems with a
      genetic algorithm even if they don't include neural nets! For example,
      you can enter a traditional trading strategy (using crossovers and
      breakouts) and then find optimal parameters for those crossovers and
      breakouts. You can also use the optimizer to remove useless rules in
      your trading strategy. 

    o NeuroShell. 2 - This is our classic general purpose system highly
      suited to students and professors who are most comfortable with
      traditional neural nets (not recommended for problem solving in a
      business or scientific environment). It contains 16 traditional neural
      network paradigms (algorithms) and combines ease of use and lots of
      control over how the networks are trained. Parameter defaults make it
      easy for you to get started, but provide generous flexibility and
      control later for experimentation. Networks can either predict or
      classify. Uses spreadsheet files, but can import other types. Runtime
      facilities include a source code generator, and there are several
      options for processing many nets, 3D graphics (response surfaces), and
      financial or time series indicators. It does not contain our newest
      network types that are in the NeuroShell Predictor, the NeuroShell
      Classifier and the NeuroShell Trader. 

    o GeneHunter. - This is a genetic algorithm product designed for
      optimizations like finding the best schedules, financial indicators,
      mixes, model variables, locations, parameter settings, portfolios,
      etc. More powerful than traditional optimization techniques, it
      includes both an Excel spreadsheet add-in and a programmer's tool kit.

    o NeuroShell. Engine - This is an Active X control that contains the
      neural and genetic training methods that we have used ourselves in the
      NeuroShell Predictor, the NeuroShell Classifier, and the NeuroShell
      Trader. They are available to be integrated into your own computer
      programs for both training and firing neural networks. The NeuroShell
      Engine is only for the most serious neural network users, and only
      those who are programmers or have programmers on staff.

   NeuroLab is a block-diagram-based neural network library for Extend
   simulation software (developed by Imagine That, Inc.). The library aids
   the understanding, designing and simulating of neural network systems.
   The library consists of more than 70 functional blocks for artificial
   neural network implementation and many example models in several
   professional fields.The package provides icon-based functional blocks for
   easy implementation of simulation models. Users click, drag and connect
   blocks to construct a neural network and can specify network
   parameters--such as back propagation methods, learning rates, initial
   weights, and biases--in the dialog boxes of the functional blocks.
   Users can modify blocks with the Extend model-simulation scripting
   language, ModL, and can include compiled program modules written in other
   languages using XCMD and XFCN (external command and external function)
   interfaces and DLL (dynamic linking library) for Windows. The package
   provides many kinds of output blocks to monitor neural network status in
