It is written in the R statistical programming language. Given a data set with categorical variables, we use this algorithm to estimate the probabilities of a new observation vector belonging to a specific category. This type of neural network provides the benefits of fast training time relative to backpropagation and statistical generalization with only a small set of known observations. authors: - family-names: Ebrahimi given-names: Romin email: romin.ebrahimi@utexas.edu repository: https://romin-ebrahimi.r-universe.dev commit: 556140e58cce6aa99be929d1551ffe39afcd25d6 date-released: '2020-01-07' contact: - family-names: Ebrahimi given-names: Romin email: romin.ebrahimi@utexas.edu
