Abstract
To decompose neural network structures for composite tasks, a pruning method and its visualization method are proposed. Visualization by placing the neurons on a 2D plane clarifies the structure related to each composited task. Experiments on a composite task using two tasks from a UCI dataset show that the neural network of the composite task contains more than 80% of neurons. The proposed methods target the transfer learning of robot motion, and results of an adaptation experiments are also referred.
