Abstract: Most of local minima caused by the hierarchical structure can be resolved by extending the real-valued neural network to complex numbers. It was proved in 2000 that a critical point of the real-valued neural network with hidden neurons always gives many critical points of the real-valued neural network with hidden neurons. These critical points consist of many lines in the parameter space which could be local minima or saddle points. Local minima cause plateaus which have a strong negative influence on learning. However, most of the critical points of complex-valued neural network are saddle points unlike those of the real-valued neural network. This is a prominent property of the complex-valued neural network. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
