Exceptional reducibility of complex-valued neural networks.
A neural network is referred to as minimal if it cannot reduce the number of hidden neurons that maintain the input-output map. The condition in which the number of hidden neurons can be reduced is referred to as reducibility. Real-valued neural networks have only three simple types of reducibility. It can be naturally extended to complex-valued neural networks without bias terms of hidden neurons. However, general complex-valued neural networks have another type of reducibility, referred to herein as exceptional reducibility. In this paper, another type of reducibility is presented, and a method by which to minimize complex-valued neural networks is proposed.
