A Novel Local Connection Neural Network

A new type of local connection neural network is proposed in this paper. There is a called K-type activation function in its hidden layer so as to have less computation compared with other local connection neural network. First the structure and algorithm of the proposed network are given. Then the function of network and its properties are analyzed theoretically. The proposed network can be used in the function approximation and modeling. Finally, numerical applications are used to verify the advantages of proposed network compared with other local connection neural networks.
