Abstract: Before symbolic rules are extracted from a trained neural network, the network is usually pruned so as to obtain more concise rules. Typical pruning algorithms require retraining the network which incurs additional cost. This paper presents FERNN, a fast method for extracting rules from trained neural networks without network retraining. Given a fully connected trained feedforward network with a single hidden layer, FERNN first identifies the relevant hidden units by computing their information ... (Update)
