On Efficient Learning Machine With Root-Power Mean Neuron in Complex Domain.

This paper describes an artificial neuron structure and an efficient learning procedure in the complex domain. This artificial neuron aims at incorporating an improved aggregation operation on the complex-valued signals. The aggregation operation is based on the idea underlying the weighted root-power mean of input signals. This aggregation operation allows modeling the degree of compensation in a natural manner and includes various aggregation operations as its special cases. The complex resilient propagation algorithm (\BBC-RPROP) with error-dependent weight backtracking step accelerates the training speed significantly and provides better approximation accuracy. Finally, performance evaluation of the proposed complex root-power mean neuron with the \BBC-RPROP learning algorithm on various typical examples is given to understand the motivation.
