Thuy Van Tran, Yao Nan Wang · Journal of Information and Optimization Sciences · 2017
This paper considers an evolutionary extreme learning machine (ELM) based on chemical reaction optimization (CRO) to overcome the drawbacks of ELM, such as the unavoidable existence of a set of unnecessary or non-optimal hidden biases and input weights. By using CRO algorithm to determine the hidden biases and input weights according to both the norm of output weights and the root mean squared error, the classification performance of optimized ELM can be improved. The experimental results on some real benchmark problems show that the proposed method can achieve higher classification accuracy than both other compared evolutionary ELMs and original ELM.
