Abstract

Extreme Learning Machines (ELMs) are gaining fairly popularity in training neural networks, since they are quite simple and have good performance. However, an open problem is the number of neurons in the hidden layer. This paper proposes a method for pruning the hidden layer neurons based on the linear combination of the hidden layer weights and the input data.
