Improving I-ELM structure through optimal addition of hidden nodes: Compact I-ELM by Sunghyo Seo, Jongkwon Jo, Muhammad Hamza, Youngsoon Kim

“…Unlike in existing I-ELMs, which use random hidden nodes, we propose a compact I-ELM algorithm that initially adds linear regression nodes and subsequently applies a method to ensure that the hidden nodes have patterns differing from the existing ones. Based on benchmark data, we confirmed that the proposed method constructs a compact neural network structure with fewer hidden nodes compared to the existing I-ELM systems.…”

GEOCHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF MAFIC ROCKS IN THE STRUCTURE OF THE YENISEI-KHATANGA TROUGH AND THEIR BELONGING TO THE SIBERIAN TRAP PROVINCE by O. P. Polyansky, Yu. F. Filippov, A. Y. Selyatitskii, P. O. Polyansky

“…The geochemical characteristics of mafic rocks, presenting in the sedimentary complexes of the YKT, correspond to three types of mafic rocks allocated to the Siberian LIP: Nadezhdinsky (low Ti), Morongovsky (low Ti), and, in limited quantities, Ivakinsky (rift-related high Ti). Based on the seismic data, there was constructed a deep structural-tectonic cross-sectional model, and there was considered the position of mafic intrusions in the sedimentary section in the western junction zone of the Siberian Platform and the Kara (Taimyr-Severozemelsky) orogen. …”
