 *        default is:  n_training_cycles = 5000, n_layers = 4                     *
 *        note that the number of hidden layers in the NN is                      *
 *                                                                                *
 *            n_hidden_layers = n_layers - 2                                      *
 *                                                                                *
 *        since there is one input and one output layer. The number of            *
 *        nodes (neurons) is predefined to be                                     *
 *                                                                                *
 *           n_nodes[i] = nvars + 1 - i (where i=1..n_layers)                     *
 *                                                                                *
 *        with nvars being the number of variables used in the NN.                *
 *        Hence, the default case is: n_neurons(layer 1 (input)) : nvars          *
 *                                    n_neurons(layer 2 (hidden)): nvars-1        *
 *                                    n_neurons(layer 3 (hidden)): nvars-1        *
 *                                    n_neurons(layer 4 (out))   : 2              *
 *                                                                                *
 *        This artificial neural network usually needs a relatively large         *
 *        number of cycles to converge (8000 and more). Overtraining can          *
 *        be efficienctly tested by comparing the signal and background           *
 *        output of the NN for the events that were used for training and         *
 *        an independent data sample (with equal properties). If the separation   *
 *        performance is significantly better for the training sample, the        *
 *        NN interprets statistical effects, and is hence overtrained. In         * 
 *        this case, the number of cycles should be reduced, or the size          *
 *        of the training sample increased.                                       *
 *                                                                                *
