Minima of the loss function landscape (LFL) of a neural network are locally optimal sets of weights that extract and process information from the input data to make outcome predictions. In underparameterised networks, the capacity of the weights may be insufficient to fit all the relevant information. We demonstrate that different local minima specialise in certain aspects of the learning problem, and process the input information differently. This effect can be exploited using a meta-network in which the predictive power from multiple minima of the LFL is combined to produce a better classifier. With this approach, we can increase the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve by around  20 % for a complex learning problem. We propose a theoretical basis for combining minima and show how a meta-network can be trained to select the representative that is used for classification of a specific data item. Finally, we present an analysis of symmetry-equivalent solutions to machine learning problems, which provides a systematic means to improve the efficiency of this approach.
