In this paper, we first integrate normalization to the Ensemble Deep Random Vector Functional Link network (edRVFL). This re-normalization step can help the network avoid divergence of the hidden features. Then, we propose novel variants of the edRVFL network. Weighted edRVFL (WedRVFL) uses weightin...
