Abstract

A new concept learning neural network is presented. This network builds correlation learning into a rule learning neural network where the certainty factor model of traditional expert systems is taken as the network activation function. The main argument for this approach is that correlation learning can help when the neural network fails to converge to the target concept due to insufficient or noisy training data. Both theoretical analysis and empirical evaluation are provided to validate the system
