This paper presents the design and testing of a new training model for single hidden layer feedforward network based on the same properties of Extreme Learning Machine (ELM). The model acts by compressing the information coming from the hidden layer by means of a subset of nodes from the same layer. This allows to considerably reduce the computational complexity compared to ELM. Experimental results based on simulation for different classification problems indicate that the proposed model achieves the same ELM performances in terms of generalization, exceeding it in speed [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
