Abstract
In this paper, we propose an improved training pattern in back-propagation neural networks using Holt-Winters’ seasonal method and gradient boosting model (NHGB). It removes the errors that cause disabilities in the hidden layers of BPNN and further improves the predictive performance. It increases the weights and decays the error using Holt-Winters’ seasonal method and gradient boosting model, which reduces longer convergence time. The NHGB method is compared with other existing methods against average initial error, root mean square error, accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity metrics. The result shows that NHGB method is effective in terms of reduced RMSE and increased accuracy in classifying the datasets.
