A bibliography of neural network business applications research: 1994–1998

The purpose of this paper is to present a comprehensive bibliography of neural network application research in business during the period of 1994–1998. Our extensive literature searches have identified a total of 302 research articles. A classification of these articles by year reveals that a large amount of research has been published in the last five years. Production/operations, finance, marketing/distribution, and information systems were found as the most popular application areas. Information on neural network development language/tool, learning paradigm, computing operating environment, journals and authors are included. An in-depth comparison with the previous survey findings and potential future research trend in the neural network business research are discussed.
