Abstract :
An alternative to the back propagation algorithm for the effective training of multi-layer perceptron (MLP)-networks with binary output is described. The algorithm determines the optimal set of weights by an iterative scheme based on the singular value decomposition (SVD) method and the Fletcher and Reeves version of the conjugate gradient method
