Hi,

I couldn't find any reports on high accuracy on any set of data. The
popular datasets seem to be Iris dataset and MNIST dataset. However, their
example page on git hub shows several results for different techniques and
datasets (https://github.com/deeplearning4j/dl4j-0.0.3.3-examples). And as
it can be seen, the accuracies mentioned are quite low. (However, the
developers claim that this is because they have run the examples with less
number of nodes and less iterations)
