Abstract

In order to reduce the complexity of a single hidden layered multilayer neural network, a new two hidden layered MFNN (THL-MFNN) with a combined structure of a RBFN and MLPs is proposed, and its associated training method is discussed. The proposed THL-MFNN can be easily constructed, and can be efficiently trained by online recursive methods. The performance of the proposed THL-MFNN with P/4+2 = 18 hidden nodes and 34 weights is equal to that of an optimaum Bayesian equalizer using an RBFN with P = 64 hidden nodes and 64 weights. The role of each layer in the proposed THL-MFNN is presented by theoretical approach, and the feasibility of a more reduced structure is given.
