Abstract: Interest in the application of neural networks as tools for decision support has been growing in recent years. A major drawback often associated with neural networks is the difficulty in understanding the knowledge represented by a trained network. This paper describes an approach that can extract symbolic rules from neural networks. We illustrate how the approach successfully extracted rules from a data set collected from a survey of the service sectors in the United Kingdom. The extracted... (Update)
