Neural networks have received a great deal of attention from many researchers. One of the advantages of neural networks is their ability to generalize from real world data. This paper proposes a neural network approach to nonparametric econometric modelling. A real-life-data example of modelling an expenditure system shows the use of the proposed neural network method in nonparametric modelling.
