Validation of Neural network packages

Background

The goal of this project is to evaluate and verify the accuracy of R packages that include Neural Network for regression purpose, the so-called multilayer perceptron. We plan to evaluate about 60 packages.

This is a continuation of the NNbenchmark 2019 project

Details of your coding project

The students will run again the 2019 code, then use a new template prepared by one mentor during winter 2019-2020 an rearrange all results with this new template.

Expected impact

We provide reproducible code with the NNbenchmark package and the templates prepared for every packages.

Mentors

Same mentors than in 2019: Patrice Kiener, Christophe Dutang, John C. Nash.

Tests

Students, please submit your proposal to the mentors
