A Learning Algorithm based on High School Teaching Wisdom

A learning algorithm based on primary school teaching and learning is presented. The methodology is to continuously evaluate the performance of the network and to train it on the examples for which they repeatedly fail, until, all the examples are correctly classified. Empirical analysis on UCI data show that the algorithm produces a good training data and improves the generalization ability of the network on unseen data. The algorithm has interesting applications in data mining, model evaluations and rare objects discovery.
