Abstract

This paper presents a new single-layer neural network which is based on orthogonal functions. This neural network is developed to avoid the problems of traditional feedforward neural networks such as the determination of initial weights and the numbers of layers and processing elements. The desired output accuracy determines the required number of processing elements. Because weights are unique, the training of the neural network converges rapidly. An experiment in approximating typical continuous and discrete functions is given. The results show that the neural network has excellent performance in convergence time and approximation error
