Abstract     The aim of research is to develop artificial neural network based system for childhood obesity prediction based on various types of medical and sociological data. If obesity could be predicted it could be prevented in most cases and degenerative and chronic diseases caused by it avoided. A new generation of artificial neural network is used to handle this difficult problem successfully.
