    FINANCIAL FORECASTING USING NEURAL NETWORKS
    This paper presents an application of neural networks to financial time-series forecasting. No additional indicators, but only the information contained in the sales time series was used to model and forecast stock exchange index. The forecasting is carried out by two different neural network learning algorithms – error backpropagation and Kohonen self-organising maps. The results are presented and their comparative analysis is performed in this article.

    INFORMATIONAL WARFARE – INFLUENCE ON INFORMATIONAL STRUCTURES
    The concept of information warfare encompasses the use of information and communication technologies to gain an advantage over a potential opponent. The information warfare is the manipulation with the information that trusts the goal, so that the goal should make decisions about its interests in the interests of opponents. Information structures are treated as systems that process different types of information, provide storage and access to users. Such structures may enclose neural networks, self-learning systems etc. They need to be ready to learn, respond to threats and ensure their safety, which is topical in today's information warfare. This paper will address aspects related to the security of information systems from a system theory point of view. The knowledge base of information structures can be elements of artificial intelligence, which security must be protected against various threats. The authors considers artificial neural networks to be one of the potential threats in the context of information warfare.

    The Influence of Hidden Neurons Factor on Neural Nework Training Quality Assurance
    The work shows the role of hidden neurons in the multilayer feed-forward neural networks. The numeric expression of hidden neurons is usually determined in each case empirically. The methodology for determining the number of hidden neurons are described. The neural network based approach is analyzed using a multilayer feed-forward network with backpropagation learning algorithm. We have presented neural network implementation possibility in bankruptcy prediction (the experiments have been performed in the Matlab environment). On the base of bankruptcy data analysis the effect of hidden neurons to specific neural network training quality is shown. The conformity of theoretical hidden neurons to practical solutions was carried out.

    DATA MINING TEACHING POSSIBILITIES USING MATLAB
    The teaching experience in the study process shows that students are better at perceiving graphical information rather than analytical relationships. Many training courses run on models that were previously available only in mathematics or physics. The use of Matlab package for the implementation of various algorithms in the Information Technology fields could be a possible solution. Often, the analytical solution is much simpler than the visual Matlab model, but for the purposes of perspective training it gives understanding of the usefulness of using such models. In the previous articles the authors had given examples of how Matlab's possibilities could be used for economic research purposes (optimal tax rate searching and modelling market equilibrium price). Students are very interested in modern data mining methods, such as artificial neural networks. In the research part of the study, the modelling capabilities in data mining studies are demonstrated by neural network examples.
