Hello all,
I would like to know whether there exists any way to calculate the AIC or the
BIC criteria for a nnet object (not only in the multinomial case).
Commands like stepAIC, AIC or extractAIC do not work with a feed forward
neural net and I cannot find any command that deals with nnet objects.
They are not defined for most nnet fits -- they need a maximized
likelihood, and no neural-net fitting package gives you that.
Best
