If you got a NVIDIA GTX card or a NVIDIA Tesla card, you might be interested in testing it on your lotteries.
There's a tutorial on the website.
I don't think it can replace NNLP which is very flexible and allow more than one line to be predicted, but it can be used to experiment with.
I haven't tested it myself yet, so I can't help you with any settings.
The deep learning stuff is on NVIDIAs web site. The Microsoft CNTK looks very promising, however you are looking at some very expensive hardware, like 4 GTX 1080s costing hundreds of dollars. Then there's the programming aspect of it, even though it can be done with just a command line interface. You would be looking at every aspect of the ANN not to mention the learning curve for that software. Mabe if we can see something promising with NNLP or the Predictor from Ward Systems which is genetically optimized, it may be worth looking further. So far I am experimenting with sums and category's of box numbers that come out X number of times in a year with NNLP. Since these ideas have a high repetition rate, and the Neural Net is looking for patterns repeating in the numbers NNLP may be able to spot a trend that just the straight statistics may not. Atleast make a better guess than I would make on my own.
I think NNlp is a feed foward NN not back propagation. I may experiment with the MBP software, thanks for the link. :)

You don't need the most expensive GTX cards for accelerating with CUDA. All the NVIDIA cards down to GT got CUDA cores.
Unfortunately the BMP software does not predict anything, it just learns.
I am considering NeuroSolutions ANN which can use the cores of both the AMD Radeon and NVIDIA GTX graphics cards.
Makes it easier to switch between the brands. I already own the Predictor XL add-in for Excel, but it's rather slow.

I agree, Predictor XL along with the Analyzer XL suite is more for stock forecasting. If you follow the examples it does a decent job of predicting the next days closing price, not perfect though. So far in predicting sums for pick 3 NNLP 2.1 seems to work ok it tends to predict sums 9-18 which could be nothing better than a good guess due to the high repetition of sums 1-27. At first here I have only been looking for general sums coming out within the next 10 games in back testing using 5 predictions with the lowest error rate. It seems NNLP never quite gets a really low error rate very quickly. I am going to try Predictor XL next because it does give results with lower error rates. I am finding that NNLP seems to work better with these single number lists, this may hold true for Predictor XL. For folks using NNlp for pick 3 and other games it may work out better to arrange the game history from lowest number to highest number and only use the single position number lists in the draws tab of NNLP. Its a copy and paste from excel. Today I am trying to see if I can get a good prediction for next draw for sums in back testing. Going to look for the 1 or 2 sums predicted with lowest error rates in the shortest amount of time, see how that works out.
NeuroSolutions looks good I wonder how much the course costs, the website says you get a 200 dollar credit towards the software if you take the course. Neurosolutions 7 priced at 495 but I would want to take the course if not too pricey, reading the book now.
