abstract = "The goal of this paper is to derive predictive models
that take as input a description of a problem and
produce as output an estimate of the optimal number of
hidden nodes in an Artificial Neural Network (ANN). We
call such computational tools Direct Estimators of
Neural Network Topology (DENNT), an use Genetic
Programming (GP) to evolve them. The evolved DENNTs
take as input statistical and complexity descriptors of
the problem data, and output an estimate of the optimal
number of hidden neurons.",
