Abstract :
This paper presents a novel technique for data sharing through neural network training target manipulation. It uses correlations between output values of a network to create a set of non-zero targets for each training pattern. Experimental results show that more than 20% error reduction is achieved on a speaker-independent continuous digit string recognition task
