Abstract
In school, a teacher plays an important role in various classroom teaching patterns. Likewise to this human learning activity, the learning using privileged information (LUPI) paradigm provides additional information generated by the teacher to ’teach’ learning models during the training stage. Therefore, this novel learning paradigm is a typical Teacher–Student Interaction mechanism. This paper is the first to present a random vector functional link (RVFL) network based on the LUPI paradigm, called RVFL+. The novel RVFL+ incorporates the LUPI paradigm that can leverage additional source of information into the RVFL, which offers an alternative way to train the RVFL. Rather than simply combining two existing approaches, the newly-derived RVFL+ fills the gap between classical randomized neural networks and the newfashioned LUPI paradigm. Moreover, the proposed RVFL+ can perform in conjunction with the kernel trick for highly complicated nonlinear feature learning, termed KRVFL+. Furthermore, the statistical property of the proposed RVFL+ is investigated, and the authors present a sharp and high-quality generalization error bound based on the Rademacher complexity. Competitive experimental results on 14 real-world datasets illustrate the great effectiveness and efficiency of the novel RVFL+ and KRVFL+, which can achieve better generalization performance than state-of-the-art methods.
