An Alternative Fast Learning Algorithm of Neural Network

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent and Soft Computing ((AINSC,volume 56))

Abstract

In this paper, an alternative fast learning algorithm for supervised neural network was proposed. Both linear multi-regression and back-propagation learning methods were used alternately in the network’s training process. This new learning way is expected to improve the learning efficiency and accuracy of neural network in the real applications. To demonstrate the superiority of the learning method we developed, several examples were simulated. The conventional back-propagation learning method was also performed as the comparison with the new method proposed. From the simulation results shown, the new method we proposed not only has the faster learning speed, but also has the better learning efficiency.
