cat << EOF
annie is an ANN, ie, Artificial Neural Network library developed in C++. It
can be used
to implement various kinds of neural networks like Multi-Layer Perceptron,
Radial basis
function networks, Hopfield networks etc.

To avoid possible conflict with any other library that you may be using,
all classes
here are packaged into a namespace annie.

This library is intended to be ideal for beginners who need to use neural
networks in
some particular application, and want to concentrate on the application
rather than the
network implementation itself, so such users can treat this library as a
black-box, not
worrying about how it's working.

You can also download the Matlab Extensions Pack from the website
(annie.sourceforge.net), which will help you use the features of Matlab to
train and
modify networks and yet be able to use them in your C++ programs.
