  • Abstract
    In this paper, a new pruning algorithm based on grey incidence analysis for feedforward neural networks is presented.The pruned network has the optimal topology with avoiding over training and obtaining good generalization.The removed connections and the incorporated connections are chosen according to the degree of grey incidence of each output sequence of the network units. The simulation results show the effectiveness over several test problems.
