In this paper we concentrate on prediction of future values based on the past course of a variable, Traditionally this task is solved using statistical analysis – first a time-series model is constructed and then statistical prediction algorithms are applied to it in order to obtain future values. This paper describes two learning algorithms for training Multi-layer perceptron networks, widely known Back propagation learning algorithm and Levenberg- Marquardt algorithm. Both of these methods are applied to solve prediction of real numerical time series represented by Czech household consumption expenditures. Tested dataset includes twenty-eight observations between the years 2001 and 2007. The observations are represented by quarterly data and the goal is to predict three future values for first three quarters of 2008. Predicted values of both experiments are compared with measured values. In the next step, a comparison of neural network topology efficiency regarding to learning algorithms is made.
