The Stuttgart Neural Network Simulator (SNNS) is a library containing many standard implementations of neural networks. This package wraps the SNNS functionality to make it available from within R. Using the 'RSNNS' low-level interface, all of the algorithmic functionality and flexibility of SNNS can be accessed.

Furthermore, the package contains a convenient high-level interface, so that the most common neural network topologies and learning algorithms integrate seamlessly into R. The package provides a convenient interface to the popular Stuttgart Neural Network Simulator SNNS.

It includes functions for visualization and analysis of the models and the training procedures, as well as functions for data input/output from/to the original SNNS file formats. Following its initial release, its developers sought to make various improvements including fixing the remaining memory leaks, detected by valgrind, using the "colorspace" package for heatmaps, adding jss paper as vignette and making it possible to pass already trained models in the high-level functions, and use them to initialize the network.

The SNNS is a comprehensive application for neural network model building, training, and testing. It is one of the most complete, most reliable, and fastest implementations of neural network standard procedures. RSNNS is a general purpose comprehensive neural network package for R because of the functionality and flexibility of the SNNS kernel that is provided within R, its convenient interfaces to the most common tasks, so that the methods of SNNS integrate seamlessly into R and its enhanced tools for visualization and analysis of training and testing of the networks.
