Abstract

One of the introduce discussions in the field of using MLPNN, as a tools for data classification is related to the error back propagation algorithm which use to train the network. It has challenges for large-scale and heterogeneous data such as, lack of memory and low–speed convergence, besides, computational load is high. In this paper proposed method with partial and random updating some of weights instead of all of them in each iteration, cause to decrease computational rate, improve lack of memory’s problem and somewhat increase convergence speed. Result of experiments on two standard dataset, demonstrate efficiency of algorithm.
