چکیده

We examine the ability of radial basis functions (RBFs) to generalize. We compare the performance of several types of RBFs. We use the inverse dynamics of an idealized two-joint arm as a test case. We find that without a proper choice of a norm for the inputs, RBFs have poor generalization properties. A simple global scaling of the input variables greatly improves performance. We suggest some efficient methods to approximate this distance metric.

The method of radial basis functions for the solution of nonlinear Fredholm integral equations system.

In this paper, An effective and simple numerical method is proposed for solving systems of integral equations using radial basis functions (RBFs). We present an algorithm based on interpolation by radial basis functions including multiquadratics (MQs), using Legendre-Gauss-Lobatto nodes and weights. Also a theorem is proved for convergence of the algorithm. Some numerical examples are presented...

Radial basis function networks for obtaining long range dispersion coefficients from second virial data

A new approach, consisting of using radial basis function networks to obtain the long-range part of diatomic potential energy functions from simulated second virial coefficients, is presented. From these simulated data the artiÐcial neural network was able not only to learn but also to predict properties for systems that were not considered during the training process. Fifteen di†erent diatomic...

A meshless method for optimal control problem of Volterra-Fredholm integral equations using multiquadratic radial basis functions

In this paper, a numerical method is proposed for solving optimal control problem of Volterra integral equations using radial basis functions (RBFs) for approximating unknown function. Actually, the method is based on interpolation by radial basis functions including multiquadrics (MQs), to determine the control vector and the corresponding state vector in linear dynamic system while minimizing...

Generalization Bounds and Complexities Based on Sparsity and Clustering for Convex Combinations of Functions from Random Classes

A unified approach is taken for deriving new generalization data dependent bounds for several classes of algorithms explored in the existing literature by different approaches. This unified approach is based on an extension of Vapnik’s inequality for VC classes of sets to random classes of sets that is, classes depending on the random data, invariant under permutation of the data and possessing...
