SEED

Keyword of Integer Type

Random seed number.

This number is used in to start sequence of random numbers for neural network weights initialization and partition of initial training set data on learning/validation sets.

The neural network results are reproducible* if the same cfg file and the same SEED value are used. The user supplied value is used unless it is equal to {0}.

The default value is {0} -- Java program generates a new SEED number by chance.

*- on the same operating system. On different systems one can have different results due to random generator or rounding effects.
