Descripción
A large monitoring project, OJ-94, was set up with the aim of monitoring the blazar OJ 287 during the predicted optical outburst (in fall 1994, Sillanpaa et al. 1988) and simultaneously to collect a large data base for a small sample of blazars. Through this campaign we have obtained the best ever obtained optical light curve for any extragalactic object. The most prominent feature in the occurring at the beginning of November. This outburst occurred almost exactly at the predicted time.

However, detections are limited to strongly active regions because signal-to-noise ratio of the data is low. Recently, we developed the FarNet and FarNet-II neural networks to improve the identification of active
