Abstract
In this paper a rule extraction method for a multilayered neural network is proposed. The method is not only able to extract rules from a neural network trained with boolean valued inputs but also from a neural network trained with continuous valued inputs.
Simulations using test data of which the rules are known a priori demonstrate the ability of this method to extract comprehensible and valid rules.
