Hi there Some excitement has been generated on the net due to tantalising announcements about a new neural-net training algorithm called backpercolation. Does anybody out there have any specific info which would allow me to write some C++ code. Algorithms and references to research papers would be really nice. bruce mcdonald, University of Natal, Durban, South Africa

I too am looking for backperc references. As yet, I only have a vague recollection of a message claiming that the algorythm doesn't get caught in local minima. I should pay more attention to what I'm reading, but I don't remember where I even saw it. Thanks.
