Abstract

A feature extraction method based on decision boundaries has been proposed for neural networks. The method is based on the fact that normal vectors to the decision boundary provide the information necessary for discriminating between classes. However, it is observed that the previous implementation of numerical approximation of the gradient has resulted in some performance loss and a long processing time. In this paper, we propose a new method to calculate normal vectors analytically for neural networks with multiple hidden layers. Experiments showed noticeable improvements in performance and speed.
