In this paper, two feed forward neural network models have been presented to predict the Silicon Modification Level (SiML) of W319 aluminum alloys using the Thermal Analysis (T.A) parameters as inputs. The developed neural networks are a Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) network and a Radial Basis Function (RBF) network. The neural network models were found to predict the SiML accurately (R=0.99). Th...

In this work, generalization ability of a hybrid neural network algorithm is investigated. This algorithm consists of a combination of Radial Basis Function (RBF) and Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) in one single network using conic section functions. The network architecture using this algorithm is called Conic Section Function Neural Network (CSFNN). Various problems are examined to demonstrate t...

A non-linear version of the multivariate statistical technique of canonical correlation analysis (CCA) is proposed through the integration of a radial basis function (RBF) network. The advantage of the RBF network is that the solution of linear CCA can be used to train the network and hence the training effort is minimal. Also the canonical variables can be extracted simultaneously. It is shown...

in this article, we apply the multiquadric radial basis function (rbf) interpo-lation method for nding the numerical approximation of traveling wave solu-tions of the kawahara equation. the scheme is based on the crank-nicolsonformulation for space derivative. the performance of the method is shown innumerical examples.

Convolutional Radial Basis Function (RBF) networks are introduced for smoothing out irregularly sampled signals. Our proposed technique involves training a RBF network and then convolving it with a Gaussian smoothing kernel in an analytical manner. Since the convolution results in an analytic form, the computation necessary for numerical convolution is avoided. Convolutional RBF networks need t...

We present a method of modifying the structure of radial basis function (RBF) network to work with nonstationary series that exhibit homogeneous nonstationary behavior. In the original RBF network, the hidden node's function is to sense the trajectory of the time series and to respond when there is a strong correlation between the input pattern and the hidden node's center. This type of respons...

Learning in radial basis function (RBF) networks is the topic of this paper. Particularly we address the problem of intialisation the centers and scaling parameters in RBF networks utilizing classiication tree algorithms. This method was introduced by Kubat in 1998. Algorithms for the calculation of the centers and scaling parameters in an RBF network are presented and numerical results for the...

TThe uncertainty estimation and compensation are challenging problems for the robust control of robot manipulators which are complex systems. This paper presents a novel decentralized model-free robust controller for electrically driven robot manipulators. As a novelty, the proposed controller employs a simple Gaussian Radial-Basis-Function Network as an uncertainty estimator. The proposed netw...

In this paper we propose a radial basis function (RBF) neural network for nonlinear time-invariant channel equalizer.
