Abstract

Extreme Learning Machines (ELM) traditionally employ the squared loss function as the training criterion. However, this function is highly sensitive to outliers, which can amplify their impact on training outcomes of the model, causing the model to deviate from the true data distribution and reducing robustness of the model. Additionally, traditional ELM may encounter overfitting issues when dealing with high-dimensional dataset. To tackle these issues, this study introduces an innovative ELM frameworkthat integrates capped ℓ1 regularization with pinball loss function, termed as Cℓ1-PELM. The capped ℓ1 regularization helps prevent overfitting, and the pinball loss function, due to its linear relationship with the error, effectively mitigates the adverse effects of outliers on model training. This paper employs an iterative reweighting algorithm to optimize the objective function, ensuring rapid convergence of the model during the training process. Experimental results on 18 real-world datasets demonstrate that Cℓ1-PELM exhibits superior robustness, generalization performance, and stability in comparison to other advanced algorithms, particularly in environments with outliers.
