Neural Networks in Practice: Survey Results

In early 1995, we prepared a questionnaire to determine how companies are using neural networks to solve their problems. We mailed this questionnaire to approximately 1050 individuals. Some of these were academics, but most worked in industry. The questions focus on these key issues: (1) neural network environment, (2) neural network results, and (3) recent project success. We received 131 responses. In this paper, we report on our findings.
