Using One-Dimensional Linear Interpolation Method to Check Over-Fitting in Neural Network with Multi-Dimensional Inputs

摘要

Neural networks are widely used to learn and predict the correlation between input and output. However, in the process of learning, the excessive reduction of errors may influence the validity of prediction, this phenomenon is called over-fitting. In order to address this problem, this study sequenced the input data into one-dimensional data for the neural network structure of multi-dimensional inputs, and used visual graphics to observe whether there is over-fitting. This method is called one-dimensional linear interpolation method. The result of example validation proved that the proposed method can provide specific graphical information effectively, and determine whether there is over-fitting.
