Accuracy

[Jim Bower]

With respect to:

 >The winning system, devised by David MacKay, a physicist 
 >at the University of Cambridge's Cavendish Laboratory, 
 >predicted the buildings's energy to within 10%.  
 >The runner up was accurate to 15%.

Congradulations to David,

However, I wish (continue to wish after all these years) that
the same standard for accuracy applied to our descriptions
of neural networks:

>""Thomas Bayes theorem ... was used by an artifical neural
>network -- a computer system that mimics the way the brain
>works --"
