Abstract: The performance of neural network simulations is often reported in terms of the mean and standard deviation
of a number of simulations performed with different starting conditions. However, in many cases,
the distribution of the individual results does not approximate a Gaussian distribution, may not be symmetric,
and may be multimodal. We present the distribution of results for practical problems and show
that assuming Gaussian distributions can significantly affect the interpretation of... (Update)
