Neural network experiences between perceptrons and support vectors

After years of hesitation neural networks are now widely accepted as important tools for pattern recognition. As their characteristics differ strongly from the traditional techniques, neural networks have had a great influence on the recent developments of non-neural classifiers as well. A summary will be presented of the insights and fruits resulting from the neural network hype with an emphasis on the recently developed support vector machines.
