DropConnect Layer is based on Linear Layer, but with the difference that the weight matrix is multiplied by the random mask.I have also added tests, in which , the network architechture and size of hidden layer is same as that of the dropout layer in tests/feedforward_network_test.cpp.On my systems, the three tests are giving these classificationErrors:
