Abstract

Recent results indicate that the number of hidden nodes (H) in a feedforward neural net depend only on the number of input training patterns (T). There appear to be conjectures that H is on the order of T-1 and of log/sub 2/T. A proof is given that the maximum number of separable regions (M) in the input space is a function of both H and input space dimension (d). The authors also show that H=M -1 and H=log/sub 2/M are special cases of that formulation. M defines a lower bound on T, the number of input patterns that may be used for training. Application to some experiments are investigated. >
