MATLAB: Fitting Tool or Time Series Tool

Question

I am trying to predict housing prices using Neural Network Tool. May i know whether i should use fitting tool or time series Tool?

Thank You WT Lim

Answer 1

I understand that you would like to predict housing prices based on a data set that you already have. If the data is time dependent (date or year), you can use the ‘Time Series Prediction’ of the Neural Networks Toolbox as described in the following link: http://www.mathworks.com/help/nnet/gs/neural-network-time-series-prediction-and-modeling.html You can use ‘Fitting Tool ’ in the Neural Network Toolbox if the prediction is independent of time as illustrated in the following link: http://www.mathworks.com/help/nnet/gs/fit-data-with-a-neural-network.html
