  • Abstract
    A new training algorithm for multilayer perceptrons (MLPs) is proposed. The proposed algorithm consists of two phases: a trust region-based local search for fast training of networks and a quotient-based global search for escaping local minima and moving toward a weight vector of next descent. These two phases are repeated alternatively in the weight space to achieve a goal training error. Benchmark results demonstrate a significant performance improvement of the proposed training algorithm compared with other existing training algorithms.
