In this paper we propose a radial basis function (RBF) neural network for nonlinear time-invariant channel equalizer. The RBF network model has a three-layer structure which is comprised of an input layer, a hidden layer and an output layer. The learning algorithm consists of unsupervised learning and supervised learning. The unsupervised learning mainly adjusts the weight among input layer and...

We present a forecasting strategy based on stationary wavelet transform combined with radial basis function (RBF) neural network to improve the accuracy of 3-month-ahead hake catches forecasting of the fisheries industry in the central southern Chile. The general idea of the proposed forecasting model is to decompose the raw data set into an annual cycle component and an inter-annual component ...

In this study, a radial basis function (RBF) neural network with three-layer feed forward architecture was developed to effectively predict the viscosity ratio of different ethylene glycol/water based nanofluids. A total of 216 experimental data involving CuO, TiO2, SiO2, and SiC nanoparticles were collected from the published literature to train and test the RBF neural network. The parameters ...

Two difficulties are involved with traditional RBF networks: the initial configuration of an RBF network needs to be determined by a trial-and-error method, and the performance suffers degradation when the desired locations of the center of the RBF are not suitable. A novel RBF network is proposed to overcome these difficulties. A new radial basis function is used for hidden nodes, and the numb...

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...

In this paper, a novel hybrid Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBF–NN) ensemble model is proposed for rainfall forecasting based on Kernel Partial Least Squares Regression (K–PLSR). In the process of ensemble modeling, the first stage the initial data set is divided into different training sets by used Bagging and Boosting technology. In the second stage, these training sets are input to t...

A radial basis function (RBF) neural network approach with a fusion of multiple signal candidates in precision motion control is studied in this paper. Sensor weightages are assigned to sensor measurements according to the selector attributes and are approximated using RBF neural network in multi-sensor fusion. A specific application towards precision motion control of a linear motor system usi...
