How can I access the weights and connections in nftool in MATLAB?

Hi. I want to create a neural network for a fitting problem and assign the connections between neurons by myself. I also would like to access the weights and see how they change with each epoch. Is there any way to do this ?

I don't understand: The weights are the connections between neurons.
Also, I do not understand why you would want to do this. In general, knowing the weight values doesn't help much because there are a huge number of weight combinations that will minimize the error.
What are the sizes of your input and target matrices?
However, it should help quite a bit if you
1. Transform inputs to be uncorrelated, zero-mean and unit variance (zscore or mapstd).
2. Similarly for outputs.
3. Minimize the number of hidden nodes subject to a maximum error constraint (e.g., MSEgoal =
0.01 (or 0.005) * mean(var(target',1))
4. NOTE: Given the output transformation in 2, mean(var(target',1)) = 1
Access:
IW = net.IW ; B = net.b ; LW = net.LW;
Modification:
net.IW = IWnew; net.b = Bnew; net.LW = LWnew
To modify connections see the doc and website documentation.
Hope this helps

I think you will have to use the command line approach and loop over 1 epoch at a time.
It will be painfully slow even if you modify train or adapt.
Hope this helps.
