Abstract

We propose an efficient procedure for constructing and traininga feedforward neural network. The network can perform binaryclassification for binary or analogue input data. We show that theprocedure can also be used to construct feedforward neural networkswith binary-valued weights. Neural networks with binary-valuedweights are potentially straightforward to implement usingmicroelectronic or optical devices and they can also exhibit goodgeneralization.
