Abstract. In this work we investigate advanced stochastic methods for solving a specific multidimensional problem related to neural networks. Monte Carlo and quasi-Monte Carlo techniques have been developed over many years in a range of different fields, but have only recently been applied to the problems in neural networks. As well as providing a consistent framework for statistical pattern recognition, the stochastic approach offers a number of practical advantages including a solution to the problem for higher dimensions. For the first time multidimensional integrals up to 100 dimensions related to this area will be discussed in our numerical study.
