A constructive algorithm to solve "Convex Recursive Deletion" (CoRD) classification problems via two-layer perceptron networks

A sufficient condition that a region be classifiable by a two-layer feedforward neural net (a two-layer perceptron) using threshold activation functions is that either it be a convex polytope or that intersected with the complement of a convex polytope in its interior, or that intersected with the c...

These have been called convex recursive deletion (CoRD) regions. We give a simple algorithm for finding the weights and thresholds in both layers for a feedforward net that implements such a region. The results of this work help in understanding the relationship between the decision region of a perceptron and its corresponding geometry in input space.
