본 연구에서는 패턴분류를 위해 최적화된 방사형 기저 함수 신경회로망(Radial Basis Function Neural Networks) 분류기를 제안한다. RBFNN은 입력층, 은닉층, 출력층의 3층 구조로 되어 있으며 Multi Dimension, Predictive ability, Robustness한 특징이 있다. RBFNN의 은닉층에는 기존의 활성함수가 아닌 Fuzzy C-means 클러스터링 알고리즘을 사용하여 입력 데이터의 특성을 고려한 적합도를 사용하였다. RBFNN은 은닉층의 노드수와 FCM 클러스터링의 퍼지화 계수, 연결가중치의 다항식 타입이 모델의 성능의 향상에 영향을 미치기 때문에 최적화가 필요하며 본 논문에서는 Differential Evolution(DE) 알고리즘을 사용하여 모델의 구조 및 파라미터를 최적화시켜 모델의 성능을 향상시켰다. 제안된 모델을 평가하기 위해 패턴분류에 많이 사용되는 Iris 데이터와 Wine 데이터를 이용하였다.

This paper examined the relations among the multidimensional linear interpolation(MDI) and fuzzy reasoning , and neural networks, and showed that an showed that an MDI is a special form of Tsukamoto's fuzzy reasoning and regularization networks in the perspective of fuzzy reasoning and neural networks, respectively.

According to the development of the Internet and the pervasion of Data Base, it is not easy to search for necessary information from the huge amounts of data. In order to do efficient analysis of a large amounts of data, this paper proposes a method for pattern classification based on the effective strategy for dimension reduction for narrowing down the whole data to what users wants to search for. To analyze data effectively, Radial Basis Function Networks based on VC-dimension of Support Vector Machine, a model of statistical teaming, is proposed in this paper. The model of Radial Basis Function Networks currently used performed the preprocessing of Perceptron model whereas the model proposed in this paper, performing independent analysis on VD-dimension, classifies each datum putting precise labels on it. The comparison and estimation of various models by using Machine Learning Data shows that the model proposed in this paper proves to be more efficient than various sorts of algorithm previously used.

In this paper, some fundamental problems concerning RBF(radial-basis-function) networks and approximation of functions are addressed. First, a comprehensive introduction to RBF networks is given with typical RBF networks classified into three classes. Next, sharp conditions are given under which continuous functions of a finite number of real variables can be approximated arbitrarily well by a certain class of RBF networks. Finally, a related result is given concerning the representation of functions in the form of distributed RBF networks.

Currently, the radial basis function network (RBFN) and various other neural networks are employed to classify gases using chemical sensors arrays, and their performance is steadily improving. In particular, the identification performance of the RBFN algorithm is being improved by optimizing parameters such as the center, width, and weight, and improved algorithms such as the radial basis function network-stochastic gradient (RBFN-SG) and radial basis function network-normalized stochastic gradient (RBFN-NSG) have been announced. In this study, we optimized the number of centers, which is one of the parameters of the RBFN-NSG algorithm, and observed the change in the identification performance. For the experiment, repeated measurement data of 8 samples were used, and the elbow method was applied to determine the optimal number of centers for each sample of input data. The experiment was carried out in two cases(the only one center per sample and the optimal number of centers obtained by elbow method), and the experimental results were compared using the mean square error (MSE). From the results of the experiments, we observed that the case having an optimal number of centers, obtained using the elbow method, showed a better identification performance than that without any optimization.

In this paper, we introduce design methodologies of polynomial radial basis function neural network classifier with the aid of Principal Component Analysis(PCA) and Linear Discriminant Analysis(LDA). By minimizing the information loss of given data, Feature data is obtained through preprocessing of PCA and LDA and then this data is used as input data of RBFNNs. The hidden layer of RBFNNs is built up by Fuzzy C-Mean(FCM) clustering algorithm instead of receptive fields and linear polynomial function is used as connection weights between hidden and output layer. In order to design optimized classifier, the structural and parametric values such as the number of eigenvectors of PCA and LDA, and fuzzification coefficient of FCM algorithm are optimized by Artificial Bee Colony(ABC) optimization algorithm. The proposed classifier is applied to some machine learning datasets and its result is compared with some other classifiers.

An elliptical basis function (EBF) network is proposed in this study for the classification of remotely sensed images. Though similar in structure, the EBF network differs from the well-known radial basis function (RBF) network by incorporating full covariance matrices and uses the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm to estimate the basis functions. Since remotely sensed data often take on mixture -density distributions in the feature space, the proposed network not only possesses the advantage of the RBF mechanism but also utilizes the EM algorithm to compute the maximum likelihood estimates of the mean vectors and covariance matrices of a Gaussian mixture distribution in the training phase. Experimental results show that the EM-based EBF network is faster in training, more accurate, and simpler in structure.

This paper is concerned with the design methodology of face recognition system based on pose estimation. In 2-dimensional face recognition, the variations of facial pose cause the deterioration of recognition performance because object recognition is carried out by using brightness of each pixel on image. To alleviate such problem, the proposed face recognition system deals with Learning Vector Quantizatioin(LVQ) or K-Nearest Neighbor(K-NN) to estimate facial pose on image and then the images obtained from LVQ or K-NN are used as the inputs of networks such as Convolution Neural Networks(CNNs) and Radial Basis Function Neural Networks(RBFNNs). The effectiveness and efficiency of the post estimation using LVQ and K-NN as well as face recognition rate using CNNs and RBFNNs are discussed through experiments carried out by using ICPR and CMU PIE databases.

In this paper, we introduce the methodological system design via feature selection using Principal Component Analysis and Particle Swarm Optimization algorithms. The overall methodological system design comes from three kinds of modules such as preprocessing module, feature extraction module, and recognition module. First, Histogram equalization enhance the quality of image by exploiting contrast effect based on the normalized function generated from histogram distribution values of 2D face image. Secondly, PCA extracts feature vectors to be used for face recognition by using eigenvalues and eigenvectors obtained from covariance matrix. Finally the feature selection for face recognition among the entire feature vectors is considered by means of the Particle Swarm Optimization. The optimized Polynomial-based Radial Basis Function Neural Networks are used to evaluate the face recognition performance. This study shows that the proposed methodological system design is effective to the analysis of preferred face recognition.

In this paper, we introduce a comprehensive design methodology of Radial Basis Function Neural Networks (RBFNN) that is based on mechanism of clustering and optimization algorithm. We can divide some clusters based on similarity of input dataset by using clustering algorithm. As a result, the number of clusters is equal to the number of nodes in the hidden layer. Moreover, the centers of each cluster are used into the centers of each receptive field in the hidden layer. In this study, we have applied Fuzzy-C Means(FCM) and K-Means(KM) clustering algorithm, respectively and compared between them. The weight connections of model are expanded into the type of polynomial functions such as linear and quadratic. In this reason, the output of model consists of relation between input and output. In order to get the optimal structure and better performance, Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) is used. We can obtain optimized parameters such as both the number of clusters and the polynomial order of weights connection through structural optimization as well as the widths of receptive fields through parametric optimization. To evaluate the performance of proposed model, NXT equipment offered by National Instrument(NI) is exploited. The situation awareness system-related intelligent model was built up by the experimental dataset of distance information measured between object and diverse sensor such as sound sensor, light sensor, and ultrasonic sensor of NXT equipment.
