"There are also many programming libraries that contain neural network functionality and that can be used in custom implementations."

A list of examples of such libraries would be very useful.

Data Analysis Simulators[edit]

Something like this is true but what does the second clause mean?

"Unlike the more general development environments data analysis simulators use a relatively simple static neural network that can be configured."

Does static mean pre-trained? Then this contradicts the sentence a bit later on saying some use back-propogation. Also while I agree links to existing products could be construed as ads and needed to be removed, the link and article about Microsoft Excel are just as bad. There should be a link to a neutral website somewhere which fairly catalogs existing software. I will put it in if I can find one. 82.26.87.252 06:21, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Static" means simply not (time) dynamic. As for links to existing products, sure a link to a directory could be useful. Beyond that the page follows a fairly standard software overview format. In fact it is perhaps a bit understated. Look at for instance Comparison of word processors or Video editing software to pick two at random. Articles describing products (commercial or otherwise) are not a problem as long as they are proper articles and not just ad propaganda. If they live up to the requirements then there is no problem - two thirds of wikipedia would have to be deleted if we removed all commercial references. Anyway, as far as I can see, the existing specific articles, while not featured article material, are of an acceptable quality. --Denoir 19:29, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Synapse screen.jpg[edit]

Image:Synapse screen.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

It's actaully under a creative commons license, but was filed incorrectly under fair use. License information has been updated.--Denoir (talk) 22:18, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
