Further Information
Extreme Learning Machine, ELM, is a recently available learning algorithm for single layer feedforward neural network. Compared with classical learning algorithms in neural network, e.g. Back Propagation, ELM can achieve better performance with much shorter learning time. In the existing literature, its better performance and comparison with Support Vector Machine, SVM, over regression and general classification problems catch the attention of many researchers. In this paper, the comparison between ELM and SVM over a particular area of classification, i.e. text classification, is conducted. The results of benchmarking experiments with SVM show that for many categories SVM still outperforms ELM. It also suggests that other than accuracy, the indicator combining precision and recall, i.e. F1 value, is a better performance indicator.
