Dear all, After working with Extreme Learning Machine classifiers for a while in MATLAB, I think it is a surprisingly good supervised classifier for multiclass problems.
Although originally it was designed as a single hidden layer neural network with some randon weights, from 2012 it has a similar mathematical formulation than SVM (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1109/TSMCB.2011.2168604 , download link: http://www.neuromorphs.net/nm/raw-attachment/wiki/2015/scc15/ELM-Unified-Learning.pdf ). This allows to use ELM with kernels, just as SVM, but avoiding "one-by-one" and "one-against-rest" techniques. Pull request is 10602 ( https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/pull/10602 ), and all contributions are welcome! Un saludo, Carlos Perales.
