A signal su ers from nonlinear, linear, and additive distortion when transmitted through a channel. Linear equalizers are commonly used in receivers to compensate for linear channel distortion. As an alternative, nonlinear equalizers have the potential to compensate for all three sources of channel distortion. Previous authors have shown that nonlinear feedforward equalizers based on either mul...

A novel reduced complexity Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural network based equaliser, referred to as the In-phase/Quadrature-phase RBF Equaliser (I/Q-RBFEQ), is proposed. The I/Q-RBF-EQ is employed in the context of turbo equalisation (TEQ) assisted by iterative channel estimation. The performance of the I/Q-RBF-TEQ is characterized in a noise limited environment over an equally weighted, symb...

In this paper, the chaotic time series RBF neural network model was designed. A prediction method for underwater acoustic chaotic signal based on RBF neural network is proposed in this paper according to the characteristics of chaotic signal with the short-term prediction. Typical Henon chaotic signal and the actual underwater acoustic chaotic signal are respectively predicted by the RBF neural...

We establish versions of Descartes' rule of signs for radial basis function (RBF) neural networks. The RBF rules of signs provide tight bounds for the number of zeros of univariate networks with certain parameter restrictions. Moreover, they can be used to infer that the Vapnik-Chervonenkis (VC) dimension and pseudodimension of these networks are no more than linear. This contrasts with previou...

. This paper devoted to an iris recognition system (IRS) designed using 2D-Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) features and Self Organizing Map (SOM) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) which are an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) used as classifier. DCT is used for feature extraction to capture essential details. SOM and RBF are applied for classification with different functional paradigms. With resp...

Radial basis neural (RBF) networks provide an excellent solution to many pattern recognition and classi cation problems. However, RBF networks are also a local representation technique that enables the easy conversion of the hidden units into symbolic rules. This paper examines rules extracted from RBF networks. We use the iris ower classication task and a vibration diagnosis classi cation task...

In this paper we propose the idea of building a new software reliability models using Radial Basis Function (RBF) network. The RBF network is easy to design and the network structure can be represented in a simple mathematical equation. Our goal is to build a generalized model that can be used for software predication [1]. The RBF network was trained with a set of data collected from the testin...
