NNML Documentation

NNML is a xml-based markup language for neural nets.
The actual version 0.3 can be used to describe feed-forward nets with neurons with a binary treshold activation funtion. I plan to add support for other net architectures and activation functions.

For the moment no documentation but the DTD (Document Type Definition) itself exists.

Contents of file nnml_0.3.dtd:


      <!-- NNML version 0.3 -->
