Abstract

This is a series of studies to discuss the partitioning capabilities of multi-layer perceptrons on dis-jointly removed non-convex (DJRNC) decision regions. There are two papers proposed in the series of studies including part A and part B. In part A, we propose a network structure to implement DJRNC decision regions using multi-layer perceptrons. In the proposed structure, all weights and the parameters of the activation functions are pre-determined when a DJRNC decision region is established. No constructive algorithm is needed for implementing the DJRNC decision regions and each weight determined by this paper is either 1 or -1. This makes the hardware implementations of the proposed network structures easy. Three cases are discussed in this paper including single, nested, and disconnected decision regions. The first case is shown in part A, and the rest of two are demonstrated in part B. We also provide three multi-layer perceptrons to implement the three decision regions and prove the implementation feasibilities of the proposed model.
