Abstract
In this paper we report on progress made in developing an artificial neural network which can reverse engineer the physical descriptions of bipolar transistors from a complete set of electrical data. The neural network tool REED (Rapid Engineering of Electron Devices) is used to perform a series of SPICE to BIPOLE3 mappings
