Gonsalves, Paul G.Snorrason, MagnusCaglayan, Alper K.2011-11-142011-11-141993-01https://hdl.handle.net/2144/1997Training data for supervised learning neural networks can be clustered such that the input/output pairs in each cluster are redundant. Redundant training data can adversely affect training time. In this paper we apply two clustering algorithms, ART2 -A and the Generalized Equality Classifier, to identify training data clusters and thus reduce the training data and training time. The approach is demonstrated for a high dimensional nonlinear continuous time mapping. The demonstration shows six-fold decrease in training time at little or no loss of accuracy in the handling of evaluation data.en-USCopyright 1993 Boston University.
