Synopsis

Feed-forward neural networks executing back propagation are a common tool for regression and pattern recognition problems. These types of neural networks can adjust themselves to data without any prior knowledge of the input data. Feed-forward neural networks with a hidden layer can approximate any function with arbitrary accuracy. In this research, the upper layer weights of the neural network structure are used to determine an effective middle layer structure and when to terminate training. By combining these two techniques with signal-to-noise ratio feature selection, a process is created to construct an efficient neural network structure. The results of this research show that for data sets tested thus far, these methods yield efficient neural network structure in minimal training time. Data sets used include an XOR data set, Fisher's Iris problem, a financial industry data set, among others.
