neural network, i would imagine.

Surely you are not using neural networks ! They are quite magical too !

Seems like neural networks would have some advantage here...

You'd let the neural network do the heavy lifting there

Nice, I see you use neural networks, can you explain a bit how you are training them?

Neural nets! Is there anything they can't do?
