An Incremental Optimal Weight Learning Machine of Single-Layer Neural Networks

Abstract EN

An optimal weight learning machine with growth of hidden nodes and incremental learning (OWLM-GHNIL) is given by adding random hidden nodes to single hidden layer feedforward networks (SLFNs) one by one or group by group.

During the growth of the networks, input weights and output weights are updated incrementally, which can implement conventional optimal weight learning machine (OWLM) efficiently.

The simulation results and statistical tests also demonstrate that the OWLM-GHNIL has better generalization performance than other incremental type algorithms.
