Abstract:

randy @ axon. cs. byu. edu Abstract- Backpropagation, like most high-order learning algorithms, is prone to overfitting. We present a novel approach, called lazy training, for reducing the overfit in multiple-output networks. Lazy training has been shown to reduce the error of optimized neural networks by more than half on a large OCR data set and on several problems from the UCI machine learning database. Here, lazy training is shown to be effective in a multi-layered adaptive learning system, reducing the error of an optimized backpropagation network in a speech recognition system by 55.0 % on the TIDIGITS corpus.
