Statistical Neural Network Analysis Package (SNNAP) Overview and Demonstration of Facilities

The Statistical Neural Network Analysis Package SNNAP was developed to support research and application of neural network personnel models within the Armstrong Laboratory and other government agencies. The package provides extensive facilities for developing and analyzing networks. It utilizes training heuristics developed in prior research to improve out-of-sample performance of network models. SNNAP provides extensive tools for analyzing and visualizing the structure of trained network models. The report provides an overview of SNNAP facilities and an extensive example using SNNAP to analyze the linkage between task performance, task experience, and airman aptitude.
