What are NET files and how to open them

Are you having problems opening a NET file or are you simply curious about its contents? We're here to explain the properties of these files and provide you with software that can open or handle your NET files.

What is a NET file?

NET files have multiple uses, and SNNS Network Definition is one of them. Read more about the other uses further down the page.

SNNS Network Definition

Neural networks are incredibly complex, and understanding them requires a deep dive into their structure and behavior. But before you can even begin to understand what is going on inside the network, you must have a way of representing its definition.

SNNS .NET files provide just that: an extensive set of data points that define how the neural network functions and how it behaves in response to different stimuli or activities. The format contains everything from basic neuron count and connection weights, to multi-dimensional cross-strengths and transfer functions required for simulations of complex behaviors.

Moreover, these files are not only used for recording; they can be used as templates to create new networks quickly and easily using convenient drag-and-drop or graphical editing tools provided in the SNNS software package. This allows you to quickly experiment with different structures without having to write code or enter complex equations by hand every time you want to make adjustments.
