We present a generalization of the RBF-FD method that allows full control of the overlap between RBF-FD stencils. We accomplish this by introducing a continuous overlap parameter δ ∈ [0, 1] such that δ = 1 recovers the standard RBF-FD method and δ = 0 results in a full decoupling of the RBF-FD stencils. We show with a simple example that global interpolation with both RBFs and RBFs augmented wi...

This paper proposes an adaptive evolutionary radial basis function (RBF) network algorithm to evolve accuracy and connections (centers and weights) of RBF networks simultaneously. The problem of hybrid learning of RBF network is discussed with the multi-objective optimization methods to improve classification accuracy for medical disease diagnosis. In this paper, we introduce a time variant mul...

OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of residual β-cell function (RBF) in children after 3-6 years of type 1 diabetes, and to examine the association between RBF and incidence of severe hypoglycemia, glycemic control, and insulin requirements. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A total of 342 children (173 boys) 4.8-18.9 years of age with type 1 diabetes for 3-6 years were included. RBF was assesse...

Radial Basis Function (RBF) methods that employ infinitely differentiable basis functions featuring a shape parameter are theoretically spectrally accurate methods for scattered data interpolation and for solving Partial Differential Equations. It is also theoretically known that RBF methods are most accurate when the linear systems associated with the methods are extremely ill-conditioned. Thi...

This study proposes RBF Network hybrid learning with Particle Swarm Optimization for better convergence, error rates and classification results. In conventional RBF Network structure, different layers perform different tasks. Hence, it is useful to split the optimization process of hidden layer and output layer of the network accordingly. RBF Network hybrid learning involves two phases. The fir...

This paper presents an axiomatic approach for constructing radial basis function (RBF) neural networks. This approach results in a broad variety of admissible RBF models, including those employing Gaussian RBF's. The form of the RBF's is determined by a generator function. New RBF models can be developed according to the proposed approach by selecting generator functions other than exponential ...

A novel particle swarm optimisation (PSO) tuned radial basis function (RBF) network model is proposed for identification of non-linear systems. At each stage of orthogonal forward regression (OFR) model construction process, PSO is adopted to tune one RBF unit’s centre vector and diagonal covariance matrix by minimising the leave-one-out (LOO) mean square error (MSE). This PSO aided OFR automat...

this paper extends the sequential learning algorithm strategy of two different types of adaptive radial basis function-based (rbf) neural networks, i.e. growing and pruning radial basis function (gap-rbf) and minimal resource allocation network (mran) to cater for on-line identification of non-linear systems. the original sequential learning algorithm is based on the repetitive utilization of s...
