Since the FAQ maintainer works for a software company, he does not recommend
or evaluate software in the FAQ. The descriptions below are provided by the
developers or distributors of the software.
Note for future submissions: Please restrict product descriptions to a
maximum of 60 lines of 72 characters, in either plain-text format or,
preferably, HTML format. If you include the standard header (name, company,
address, etc.), you need not count the header in the 60 line maximum. Please
confine your HTML to features that are supported by primitive browsers,
especially NCSA Mosaic 2.0; avoid tables, for example--use instead.
Try to make the descriptions objective, and avoid making implicit or
explicit assertions about competing products, such as "Our product is the
*only* one that does so-and-so." The FAQ maintainer reserves the right to
remove excessive marketing hype and to edit submissions to conform to size
requirements; if he is in a good mood, he may also correct your spelling and

URL: http://asweb.artsci.uc.edu/classics/nestor/nestor.html
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.

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.
