Estimates of economic growth for the coming years in a country has an important role in determining business plans for business entities and fiscal policies formulation for goverments. In this study, It was intended to estimate the GDP of economic growth variable with the help of artificial neural networks models which have often been used in estimation modelling recently. For the economic growth estimation were obtained according with its own delayed values by using Multiple Layer Perception (MLP), Radial Basis Function Networks (RBFN) and Recurring Elman Networks. When the estimation performances of the used artificial neural network structures were analyzed,it was seen that RBFN model having 4 input layers got the highest accuracy and through this model estimates of economic growth were produced for 2013Q4 and 2014Q4 periods. The obtained results showed that artificial neural networks were a successful method to be used in the estimates of economic growth
