Abstract
According to one aspect of the invention, target data comprising observations is received. A neural network comprising input neurons, output neurons, hidden neurons, skip-layer connections, and non-skip-layer connections is used to analyze the target data based on an overall objective function that comprises a linear regression part, the neural network's unregularized objective function, and a regularization term. An overall optimized first vector value of a first vector and an overall optimized second vector value of a second vector are determined based on the target data and the overall objective function. The first vector comprises skip-layer weights for the skip-layer connections and output neuron biases, whereas the second vector comprises non-skip-layer weights for the non-skip-layer connections.
