Abstract
In a neural network having neurons connected in a multi-layer, firstly, input signal sets are sequentially entered to statistically process the outputs of hidden neurons and determine the optimum number of hidden neurons. Secondly, while changing the input signal entered to each input neuron to the maximum change limit, the change of output values of the other input neurons are checked to thereby determine an unnecessary input neuron. Thirdly, the weights between input neurons and hidden neurons are set to be in correspondence with a hyperplane to enable pattern recognition.
