The application of backpropagation neural networks to predict the results of combat

The information age changes how US Army decision makers predict future trends. The Army is responding with innovative technology to help it´s planners to understand the complexities of its decisions, and their impacts, as the Army embraces a post Cold War world view. Using neural network technologies is one way to attack this social technical challenge. Several neural networks were developed to predict the outcome of combat battles. The networks were trained with combat battles from a historical database
