  <p>Would it not be the time to create a specific "Neural Network" site on StachExchange? </p>

<p>You are allowed to, but be prepared to explain how <strong>you</strong> <strong><em>will</em></strong> <strong>succeed</strong> where others have failed.</p>

<p><a href="http://area51.stackexchange.com/faq">Should my idea be part of an existing site, or its own site?</a></p>

<p>"In general, if a site makes sense as part of a bigger site, it's better to have one big site than a bunch of little niche sites. Site X should be subsumed by site Y if:</p>

<ul>
<li>Almost all X questions are on-topic for site Y</li>
<li>If Y already exists, it already has a tag for X, and nobody is complaining</li>
<li>You're not creating such a big group that you don't have enough experts to answer all possible questions</li>
<li>There's a high probability that users of site Y would enjoy seeing the occasional question about X"</li>
</ul>
