    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for multi-task structural learning in artificial neural network in which both the architecture and its parameters are learned simultaneously. The method utilizes two neural operators, namely, neuron creation and neuron removal, to aid in structural learning. The method creates excess neurons by starting from a disparate network for each task. Through the progress of training, corresponding task neurons in a layer pave the way for a specialized group neuron leading to a structural change. In the task learning phase of training, different neurons specialize in different tasks. In the interleaved structural learning phase, locally similar task neurons, before being removed, transfer their knowledge to a newly created group neuron. The training is completed with a final fine-tuning phase where only the multi-task loss is used.
