Labels:text | screenshot OCR: SYNWORKS AMIGA - Neural network design, training and visualization tool for the Amiga« series of computers and versions 2.x ++ of the KickStart« operating system. Requirements Amiga 500, 600, 1000, 1200, 2000, 2500, 3000, 4000 KickStart 2.x, 3.x, or higher 1.5 MByte RAM Recommended Hard disk Accelerator board with FPU Display enhancer Limitations of demonstration version: No FPU support Online - help only partially available Printing disabled Network size limited to 16 neurons Save option disabled ARexx interface supports only 4 commands ( instead of > 50) Several testing/tuning options disabled No printed manual No SynCode . lib (for use of networks in C programs) VERSION 2.0, Oct. 26th, 1992 DESCRIPTION SynWorks is a fully integrated environment for design, training and test of neural networks. Currently, it supports 11 different network types, the networks' sizes are only limited by the amount of memory available. SynWorks provides instruments to watch and track (to disk) all important network parameters, all kinds of errors and of course, all input and output values provided to or by the network. All network parameters can be edited, and, starting from standard networks, custom networks can be created by adding links and neurons, modifying all functions ( learn, transfer, error, evaluation). Input/output behaviour can easily be specified in terms of ranges, sources, and targets. Network display modes include structural, error-related, change-related, weight-related and memory related displays. All displays provide point- and click interfaces to the displayed parameters and are available simultaneously (watch chipmem !). All networks can be printed in four different modes, giving a textual, structural and two different descriptions on the network's weight map. SynWorks also provides a context-sensitive on-line help system that includes descriptions of all actions and important components, linked together via cross-references and easily accessible via buttons and hot-keys. Also, SynWorks features a full AREXX-interface that allows to define macros for internal use as well as using a network as part of a larger system, execute demonstrations etc .. The full version of SynWorks includes the following: 4 disks, containing SynWorks 2.0 neural network design and development tool, plain 68000 version as well as 68020/68881++ version. Example networks for tutorial SynCode . lib, library to be linked to C programs to allow easy use of networks in user C programs (networks appear as subroutines ) SynCode programming examples, comprising Car control, character recognition, decision table execution, ECG evaluation . SynTools 1.1, last version of a data display and processing tool (not supporting Kickstart 2.0x special features YET), upgradable to SynTools 2.0 (coming soon) and very useful for display and annotation of training data, also for evaluation of results. Printed manuals : SynWorks reference manual, including SynCode reference and tutorial on both SynWorks and SynCode Introduction to neural network theory - SynTools reference manual (Version 1.1) EATURES 12 different standard network models 5 different possibilities to display network (simultaneously) different possibilities to print network (standard WB printe colour printing supported) 24 different instruments to watch and track the network's behaviour 56 AREXX commands give full external control over SynWorks. On-line context sensitive help system, supports keyword tracking. Supports all resolutions higher than or equal to 640 x 400 with at least two bitplanes (incl. A 2024, Productivity, AGA GUI according to User Interface Style Guide. Version for 68020/68881 and up available. UTHOJ Michael Kaiser, kaiser@ira.uka.de DigiBrain - Software for Science (for the amazing Amiga :- )) Rintheimer Strasse 59 D 7500 Karlsruhe, FRG Phone : (+49) (721) 61 18 19 HANX Thanks to Howlett Packard for providing a nice environment to write my master's thesis, also for producing Dxsk- and LaserJets to print nice manuals. Thanks to Georg Hessmann for PasTex (though I had to adapt makeindex myself :- )) For people in Europe: This package has been referenced in ATP (Automatisierungstechnische Praxis), Issue 9/92. DISTRIBUTABILITY Shareware, the ftp archive contains a demonstration version with certain features disabled. Users of versions 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2 will be directly informed about upgrade possibilities, all new users can get the full version as described above directly from the author. EGISTRATION Registration fee is $120, $80 for students. Scope of delivery comprises evrything mentioned under DESCRIPTION. INSTALLATION OF DEMONSTRATION VERSION: copy s/ files to s: start SynWorks (CLI or WorkBench) TO LOOK AROUND : Load (using "NetWork/Load Network") one of the networks supplied with the demo. There are six networks altogether, all set up to solve the well known XOR-problem. The network types are backpropagation, fast backpropagation and counterpropagation. All networks exist in their initial state as well as trained for the problem. Also, the trace of the networks' output error is supplied (see "Watch/Display trace file"). For Help: Select SynWorks/Help/Menus/Commands to get Menu/Item related help. Select SynWorks/Help/Index/General for a list of keywords and top-level access to all helpfiles. *NOTE: The help information is *NOT* complete in the demo. HAVE FUN ! EMOS OF SYNCODE: Two demonstrations of SynCode programs are also supplied. CarDemo shows how to use a neural network to guide a car through obstacl es. NumDemo is a typical example of pattern recognition. *NOTE: The networks used are not readable by SynWorks (demo). The registered version contains sources of these and other
