The best feature of artificial intelligent Feed Forward Neural Network (FFNN) classification models is learning of input data through their weights. Data preprocessing and pre-training are the contributing factors in developing efficient techniques for low training time and high accuracy of classification. In this study, we investigate and review the powerful preprocessing functions of the FFNN models. Currently initialization of the weights is at random which is the main source of problems. Multilayer auto-encoder networks as the latest technique like other related techniques is unable to solve the problems. Weight Linear Analysis (WLA) is a combination of data pre-processing and pre-training to generate real weights through the use of normalized input values. The FFNN model by using the WLA increases classification accuracy and improve training time in a single epoch without any training cycle, the gradient of the mean square error function, updating the weights. The results of comparison and evaluation show that the WLA is a powerful technique in the FFNN classification area yet.
