		Neural NetworkBased Model Selection and Forecasting // Provides a
		systematic framework for neural networkbased model selection
		and forecasting using single hidden layer feed-forward
		networks. It evaluates all possible combinations of predictor
		variables and hidden layer configurations, selecting the
		optimal model based on predictive accuracy criteria such as
		root mean squared error (RMSE) and mean absolute percentage
		error (MAPE). Predictors are automatically standardized, and
		model performance is assessed using out-of-sample validation.
		The package is designed for empirical modelling and forecasting
		in economics, agriculture, trade, climate, and related applied
		research domains where nonlinear relationships and robust
		predictive performance are of primary interest.
