The three layer neural network (TLNN) is treated, where the nonlinearity of a neuron is of signum. First we propose an expression of the discriminant function of the TLNN, which is called a linear-homogeneous expression. This expression allows the differentiation in spite of the signum property of the neuron. Subsequently a learning algorithm is proposed based on the linear-homogeneous form. The algorithm is an error-correction procedure, which gives a mathematical foundation to heuristic error-correction learnings described in various literatures.
