Supervised Learning with Growing Cell Structures
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a new incremental radial basis function network suitable for classification 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 classification 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.

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 کاملA Weakly-Supervised Approach to Seismic Structure Labeling
With the growing demand of high-resolution subsurface characterization from 3D seismic surveying, the size of 3D seismic data has been dramatically increasing, and correspondingly, the process of interpreting seismic data is becoming more time consuming and labor intensive. Recently, there has been great interest in various supervised machine learning techniques that can help reduce the time an...

Alrstract-We present a new self-organizing neural network model that has two variants. The first variant performs unsupervised learning and can be used for data visualization, clustering, and vector quantization. The main advantage over existing approaches ( e.g., the Kohonen feature map) is the ability o f the model to automatically find a suitable network structure and size. This is achieved ...
متن کاملComparison 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...
