NeuroDimension, Inc. was acquired by nDimensional, Inc. (in 2016). NeuroDimension specialized in neural networks, adaptive systems, and genetic optimization and made software tools for developing and implementing these artificial intelligence technologies. NeuroSolutions is a general-purpose neural network development environment and TradingSolutions is a tool for developing trading systems based on neural networks and genetic algorithms.
History
Formation and NeuroSolutions
Prior to the acquisition of NeuroDimension (in 2016), it was a software development company headquartered in Gainesville, Florida and founded in 1991 by Steven Reid, MD, Jose Principe, PhD (Director of the Computational Neural Engineering Lab at the University of Florida) and Curt Lefebvre, PhD (CEO of nDimensional). These three individuals were instrumental in the company's early success. Dr. Reid provided the initial capital to get the company off the ground. Dr. Principe provided the engineering staff with technical direction and had helped secure research grant funding for the company. Dr. Lefebvre was the principal author of the company’s core neural network technology.
The company was formed around a software tool, NeuroSolutions, which enables engineers and researchers to easily model their data using neural networks. Since NeuroSolutions was introduced in 1994, it has attracted thousands of users from over 60 countries around the globe, making it the standard in neural network development tools. NeuroDimension itself has also used this product as the basis for numerous research grants, neural network courses, an interactive textbook, consulting projects and the development of several related products.
Financial Analysis and TradingSolutions
In 1997, it became apparent that one of the most common uses of NeuroSolutions was to create neural network models to time the financial markets. The company management then assembled an exceptional team of traders, researchers, and engineers with an extended knowledge of artificial intelligence, time-series analysis, software engineering and trading. Since TradingSolutions release in July 2000, this powerful financial analysis software package has enabled its users to profit from the hidden price patterns discovered by the neural networks.
As TradingSolutions grew in popularity, it attracted the attention of a number of professional traders and hedge funds. Since 2005, NeuroDimension has branched out to provide custom trading system development services for these customers. By leveraging our proprietary distributed research platform, we are able test thousands of potential system variations each day and extract the ones that have the most potential for further analysis. Research into real-time trading systems led to the development of a robust, real-time trading platform capable of handling the many irregularities that occur during live trading. Released in 2008, Trader68 handles the trading and distribution of trading signals from TradingSolutions, proprietary research, and other sources.
In late 2015, Trader68 was discontinued and is no longer supported or actively developed. TradingSolutions was discontinued in 2016.
nDimensional, Inc. Acquires NeuroDimension, Inc.
In August 2016, nDimensional, Inc. announced the acquisition of NeuroDimension, Inc. to help accelerate its new web-based Platform-as-a-Service product called nD to market.
