public class NeuralNetwork<L extends LearningRule>
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable

 Base class for artificial neural networks. It provides generic structure and functionality
 for the neural networks. Neural network contains a collection of neuron layers and learning rule.
 Custom neural networks are created by deriving from this class, creating layers of interconnected network specific neurons,
 and setting network specific learning rule.
