A Training Data Selection in On-Line Training for Mult ilayer Neural Networks

In this paper, a training data selection method for multilayer neural networks (MLNNs) in on-line training is proposed. Purpose of the reduction in training data is reducing the computation complexity of the training and saving the memory to store the data without loosing generalization performance. This method uses a pairing method, which selects the nearest neighbor data by finding the nearest data in the different classes. The network is trained by the selected data. Since the selected data located along data class boundary, the trained network can guarantee generalization performance. Efficiency of this method for the on-line training is evaluated by computer simulation. 1. Int reductio
