Abstract :
The purpose of this paper is to present a new method for training ANN. The method solves a sequence of linear minimax optimization problems and does not make any assumption of the network structure, but it builds up as the algorithm proceeds. The method does not create unnecessary regions of local minima and it guarantees the classification of the input feature space in a finite number of steps
