Abstract

Developing and evaluating “connectionist models” (“neural models”) is currently a difficult and time-consuming task. To address this issue, we implemented a software system called MIRRORS/II for developing connectionist models in biomedicine and other fields. MIRRORS/II is distinguished from related systems by its support of a very high-level non-procedural language, a general-purpose event-handling mechanism, and an indexed library for the accumulation of system resources. These features make MIRRORS/II a convenient software tool for individuals in biomedicine. This paper summartzes MIRRORS/II and gives a small example of its use.
