In order to solve the problem that parameter random assignment reduces the robustness of the algorithm and the performance is significantly affected by noise of Extreme Learning Machine (ELM), combining Denoising AutoEncoder (DAE) with ELM algorithm, a DAE based ELM (DAE-ELM) algorithm was proposed. Firstly, a denoising autoencoder was used to generate the input data, input weight and hidden layer parameters of ELM. Then, the hidden layer output was obtained through ELM to complete the training of classifier. On the one hand, the advantages of DAE were inherited by the algorithm, which means the features extracted automatically were more representative and robust and were impervious to noise. On the other hand, the randomness of parameter assignment of ELM was overcome and the robustness of the algorithm was improved. The experimental results show that, compared to ELM, Principal Component Analysis ELM (PCA-ELM), SAA-2, the classification error rate of DAE-ELM at least decreases 5.6% on MNIST, 3.0% on Fashion MINIST, 2.0% on Rectangles and 12.7% on Convex.
