Introduction The basic concepts of connectionist computing schemes, often referred to in a suggestive way as "neural networks", date back to the 1940's (1). An initial burst of enthusiasm accompanied the invention of the "perceptron" (2), but early hopes were disappointed, and only few pioneers continued studying such models (3). The demonstration that principles of the theoretical physics of multiparticle systems are applicable to connectionist data processing schemes (4) gave new respectability to the field, and the invention of ingenious and efficient learning schemes such as the error back-propagation method (5) led to a remarkable renaissance of interest in the field. Neural networks are an attempt to model, albeit in a very primitive and over-simplistic way, principles of data processing which are thought to give biological nervous systems and brains their superb capabilities in performing complex tasks, particularly in the wide and important field of pattern recognition. It is only natural therefore that neural network models have also been studied in medical science, particularly with Eur. J. Clin. Chem. Clio.
