Utilize Data to Create Predictive Neural Networks

NeuralTools is a sophisticated data mining application that uses neural networks in Microsoft Excel, making accurate new predictions based on the patterns in your known data. NeuralTools imitates brain functions in order to “learn” the structure of your data, taking new inputs and making intelligent predictions. With NeuralTools, your spreadsheet can “think” for you like never before.

Overview

There are three basic steps in a Neural Networks analysis: training the network on your data, testing the network for accuracy, and making predictions from new data. NeuralTools accomplishes all this automatically in one simple step. NeuralTools automatically updates predictions when input data changes, so you don’t have to manually re-run predictions when you get new data. Combine with Palisade’s Evolver or Excel’s Solver to optimize tough decisions and achieve your goals like no other Neural Networks package can.

Key Features

Train, Test, and Predict in One Step

NeuralTools performs all three basic steps of a Neural Networks analysis in one simple step. Save time and hassle in setting up your analyses.

Live Prediction

NeuralTools automatically updates predictions when input data changes, allowing for real-time optimization of input variables. (Industrial edition only).

Variable Impact Analysis

NeuralTools ranks the effect of input variables on predictions, and new input variables can be selected or emphasized for more accurate predictions.

Training Sensitivity Analysis

This feature shows users the reliability of test results based on the size of the testing data set.

Variable Matching

With NeuralTools, variables in the different datasets (training, testing, and prediction) do not need to be in the same order or even have the same names.

Neural Networks Manager

NeuralTools helps you keep your Neural Networks organized for quick retrieval, enabling easy management of many trained Neural Networks.
