Abstract
Extreme learning machine (ELM) is a promising learning method for training “generalized” single hidden layer feedforward neural networks (SLFNs), which has attracted significant interest recently for its fast learning speed, good generalization ability and ease of implementation. However, due to its manually selected network parameters (e.g., the input weights and hidden biases), the performance of ELM may be easily deteriorated. In this paper, we propose a novel pre-trained extreme learning machine (P-ELM for short) for classification problems. In P-ELM, the superior network parameters are pre-trained by an ELM-based autoencoder (ELM-AE) and embedded with the underlying data information, which can improve the performance of the proposed method. Experiments and comparisons on face image recognition and handwritten image annotation applications demonstrate that P-ELM is promising and achieves superior results compared to the original ELM algorithm and other ELM-based algorithms.
