ABSTRACT
For neural networks to develop good internal representations for pattern mapping, noise in the training set data must be controlled. Because of the many difficulties associated with manually validating training data, we have focused on using decision table techniques as a practical, domain-independent means of optimizing training set formulation. Decision tables provide a variety of mechanisms whereby training set data can be processed to remove ambiguity, contradictions, and other noise. In addition to serving as data filters, decision tables can be used in the evaluation of neural network training.
