Method Detail

evaluateNetwork

public static double evaluateNetwork(BasicNetwork network,
                                     NeuralDataSet training)

Evaluate how long it takes to calculate the error for the network. This causes each of the training pairs to be run through the network. The network is evaluated 10 times and the lowest time is reported.

Parameters:

network - The network to evaluate with.

training - The training data to use.

Returns:

The lowest number of seconds that each of the ten attempts took.

evaluateTrain

public static double evaluateTrain(BasicNetwork network,
                                   NeuralDataSet training)

Evaluate how long it takes to calculate the error for the network. This causes each of the training pairs to be run through the network. The network is evaluated 10 times and the lowest time is reported.

Parameters:

network - The network to evaluate with.

training - The training data to use.

Returns:

The lowest number of seconds that each of the ten attempts took.
