HalfNet: Randomized Neural Networks with Learned Subspace Geometry
Ethem Alpaydin
Many researchers investigated neural networks with some of their weights fixed to values randomly drawn from a given distribution, e.g., . Our proposed HalfNet draws rando…

Half-Layered Neural Networks
Ethem Alpaydin
We propose a ``half'' layer of hidden units that has some of its weights randomly set and some of them trained. A half unit is composed of two stages: First, it takes a weighted su…
