This paper describes the use of a radial basis function (RBF) neural network. It approximates the process parameters for the extrusion of a rubber profile used in tyre production. After introducing the problem, we describe the RBF net algorithm and the modeling of the industrial problem. The algorithm shows good results even using only a few training samples. It turns out that the „curse of dim...

Support Vector Machines (SVMs) have been applied to solve the classification of volatile organic compounds (VOC) data in some recent studies. SVMs provide good generalization performance in detection and classification of VOC data. However, in many applications involving VOC data, it is not unusual for additional data, which may include new classes, to become available over time, which then req...

To effectively organize and analyze massive Web information, in this paper, we have designed a Web classification mining system. BP network has lots of disadvantages, so we have proposed a method that uses RBFNN (Radial Basis Function Neural Network) to classify the text information in Web pages. In this paper, the model of classification system mainly includes RBF (Radial Basis Function) class...

In this paper we propose a strategy to shape adaptive radial basis functions through potential functions. DYPOF (DYnamic POtential Functions) neural network (NN) is designed based on radial basis functions (RBF) NN with a two-stage training procedure. Static (fixed number of RBF) and dynamic (ability to add or delete one or more RBF) versions of our learning algorithm are introduced. We investi...

Forecasting exchange rates is an important financial problem that is receiving increasing attention especially because of its difficulty and practical applications. This paper proposes a Hierarchical Radial Basis Function Network (HiRBF) model for forecasting three major international currency exchange rates. Based on the pre-defined instruction sets, HRBF model can be created and evolved. The ...

This paper proposes a neural-network-based method for the computation of the configuration space for robotic manipulators. The configuration space can be obtained by repeatedly computing configuration space patterns for elementary obstacle primitives. For any manipulator, these patterns depend only on the distance between the base of the manipulator and the obstacle primitive. An RBF-network is...

The problem is said to be tractable if there exist constants c, α, β independent of q (but possibly dependent on μ and F) such that En(F , μ) ≤ cqαn−β. We explore different regions (including manifolds), function classes, and measures for which this problem is tractable. Our results include tractability theorems for integration with respect to non-tensor product measures, and over unbounded and...

Handwriting recognition has been one of the active and challenging research areas in the field of image processing and pattern recognition. It has numerous applications that includes, reading aid for blind, bank cheques and conversion of any hand written document into structural text form. Neural Network (NN) with its inherent learning ability offers promising solutions for handwritten characte...

Composite neural networks consist of multilayer networks, in which each layer may use different models of neurons: the classical sigmoidal neuron, the kernel neuron (like radial basis function neurons), the logical neuron, and so on. This section is devoted to supervised composite neural networks and contains three main parts. The first is focused on radial basis function (RBF) networks, as int...

The Hartley transform, a real-valued alternative to the complex Fourier transform, is presented as an efficient tool for the analysis and simulation of earthquake accelerograms. This paper is introduced a novel method based on discrete Hartley transform (DHT) and radial basis function (RBF) neural network for generation of artificial earthquake accelerograms from specific target spectrums. Acce...
