The feature selection is an important part in automatic text classification. In this paper, we use a Chinese semantic dictionary -Hownet to extract the concepts from the word as the feature set, because it can better reflect the meaning of the text. We construct a combined feature set that consists of both sememes and the Chinese words, propose a CHI-MCOR weighing method according to the weighi...

Ratio pulse arithmetic represents a signal with a random pulse stream and its value is defined as the ratio of ones and zeroes in its random pulse stream. We propose circuits for the exponential function and subtraction, and explain how to implement a radial basis function(RBF) network. We applied the RBF network to a classifier example. Simulation results show that its performance is comparabl...

The identification of non-linear systems by artificial neural networks has been successfully applied in many applications. In this context, the radial basis function neural network (RBF-NN) is a powerful approach for non-linear system identification. An RBF neural network has an input layer, a hidden layer and an output layer. The neurons in the hidden layer contain Gaussian transfer functions ...

We propose a simple but efficient method to extract rules from the radial basis function (RBF) neural network. Firstly, the data are classified by an RBF classifier. During training the RBF network, we allow for large overlaps between clusters corresponding to the same class to reduce the number of hidden neurons while maintaining classification accuracy. Secondly, centers of the kernel functio...

Adaptive communication is one of the methods used for high rate communication with efficient spectrum efficiency and with improved accuracy for future wireless communication systems. In this paper, we propose an adaptive modulated Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system based on Radial Basis Function (RBF) and then their performance (MSE) and classification accuracy is evaluate...

In this paper we provide a short overview of the Radial Basis Functions (RBF), their properties, the motivations behind their use and some of their applications. RBF’s have been employed for functional approximation in time-series modeling and in pattern classification. They have been shown to implement the Bayesian rule and to model any continuous inputoutput mapping. RBF’s are embedded in a t...

A new self-organizing map with variable topology is introduced for image segmentation. The proposed network, called Local Adaptive Receptive Field Self-organizing Map (LARFSOM-RBF), is a two-stage network capable of both color and border segment images. The color segmentation stage is responsibility of LARFSOM which is characterized by adaptive number of nodes, fast convergence and variable top...

In this work an attempt has been made to estimate the pollution flashover voltage under various meteorological factors using radial basis function (RBF) neural networks. Orthogonal least squares (OLS) learning method is used in order to improve the lines performance against the pollution flashover of the post insulators. The technique of RBF neural network is employed to model the relationship ...

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 paper a neural network for solving partial differential equations is described. The activation functions of the hidden nodes are the radial basis functions (RBF) whose parameters are learnt by a two-stage gradient descent strategy. A new growing RBF-node insertion strategy with different RBF is used in order to improve the net performances. The learning strategy is able to save computat...
