2 Supervised Growing Cell

چکیده
We present a new incremental radial basis function network suitable for classiication and regression problems. Center positions are continuously updated through soft competitive learning. The width of the radial basis functions is derived from the distance to topological neighbors. During the training the observed error is accumulated locally and used to determine where to insert the next unit. This leads (in case of classiication problems) to the placement of units near class borders rather than near frequency peaks as is done by most existing methods. The resulting networks need few training epochs and seem to generalize very well. This is demonstrated by examples.

Comparison of Different Growing Radial Basis Functions Algorithms for Control Systems Applications
Supervised Growing Neural Networks (SGNNs) are a class of self-organizing maps without a predefined structure. In fact the structure of the approximators is generated autonomously from a set of training data. Recently, new algorithms for SGNNs have been proposed with the objective to provide improved performance for on-line sequential learning. In this work two important class of algorithms for...
متن کاملSemi-Supervised Learning for Natural Language Processing
The amount of unlabeled linguistic data available to us is much larger and growing much faster than the amount of labeled data. Semi-supervised learning algorithms combine unlabeled data with a small labeled training set to train better models. This tutorial emphasizes practical applications of semisupervised learning; we treat semi-supervised learning methods as tools for building effective mo...
متن کاملAn Incremental Unsupervised Learning Scheme for Function Approximation
A new algorithm for general robust function approximation by an artificial neural network is presented. The basis for this work is Fritzke’s supervised growing cell structures approach which combines supervised and unsupervised learning. It is extended by the capability of resampling the function under examination automatically, and by the definition of a new error measure which enables an accu...

متن کاملCalculating environmental moisture for per-field discrimination of rice crops
The accuracies of rice classifications determined from density slices of broadband moisture indices were compared to results from a standard supervised technique using six reflective Enhanced Thematic Mapper plus (ETM+) bands. Index-based methods resulted in higher accuracies early in the growing season when background moisture differences were at a maximum. Analysis of depth of ETM+ band 5 res...
