Application of neural networks in economic models

Recently, neural networks have been actively used in economic research, opening up new potential for data analysis, forecasting, and decision-making. Their capacity to identify complex nonlinear relationships, process vast amounts of information, and adapt to changing conditions makes them an invaluable tool for economists. This article explores key applications of neural networks in economics, analyzes their advantages and limitations, and discusses future development prospects of this approach. Particular attention is given to Russian research in this field and practical implementations of neural network models in financial sector, macroeconomic forecasting, and business process management.
