Abstract
A plurality of training inputs are selected, wherein each training input corresponds to a first possible output. The quality of each of the plurality of training inputs is characterized. A first training input is selected from the training inputs, where the first training input is of higher quality than a second training input of the training inputs. The neural network is trained with the higher-quality first training input prior to training with the second training input. A neuron may be added to the neural network in accordance with the first training input, wherein the neuron is associated with the first possible output.
