Abstract

This paper introduces a mechanism for generating human-readable and machine-executable rules that characterize the money-price relationship, defined as the relationship between the rate of growth of the money supply and inflation. Divisia component data is used to train an Aggregate Feedforward Neural Network (AFFNN), a general-purpose connectionist architecture originally developed to assist with data mining activities. The rules extracted from the trained AFFNN meaningfully and, accurately describe inflation in terms of the Divisia component dataset.
