Connection Strategies in Cascade Correlation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Cascade Correlation architecture is unique in its abilities to construct sensibly a network topology during training — taking into account all possible connections. This paper investigates a number of different connection strategies for the hidden nodes that Cascade Correlation inserts into a network, by limiting the connections a hidden node may make.

Dynamic Learning Algorithms
This is an investigation into various strategies for changing neural network architectures which examines both the theory of changing topologies and the current literature in the area. Experiments are performed on a combination of two of the more useful methodologies, Cascade-Correlation and connection pruning, which are able to produce more compact networks.
متن کاملA Genetic Cascade-Correlation Learning Algorithm∗
Gradient descent techniques such as back propagation have been used effectively to train neural network connection weights; however, in some applications gradient information may not be available. Biologically inspired genetic algorithms provide an alternative. Unfortunately, early attempts to use genetic algorithms to train connection weights demonstrated that exchanging genetic material betwe...
متن کاملFlexNet - A flexible neural network construction algorithm
Dynamic neural network algorithms are used for automatic network design in order to avoid time consuming search for finding an appropriate network topology with trial & error methods. The new FlexNet algorithm, unlike other network construction algorithms, does not underlie any constraints regarding the number of hidden layers and hidden units. In addition different connection strategies are av...
متن کاملProton kinetic effects and turbulent energy cascade rate in the solar wind.
The first observed connection between kinetic instabilities driven by proton temperature anisotropy and estimated energy cascade rates in the turbulent solar wind is reported using measurements from the Wind spacecraft at 1 AU. We find enhanced cascade rates are concentrated along the boundaries of the (β∥, T⊥/T∥) plane, which includes regions theoretically unstable to the mirror and firehose i...
متن کاملPhase-I monitoring of standard deviations in multistage linear profiles
In most modern manufacturing systems, products are often the output of some multistage processes. In these processes, the stages are dependent on each other, where the output quality of each stage depends also on the output quality of the previous stages. This property is called the cascade property. Although there are many studies in multistage process monitoring, there are fewer works on prof...
