Exploiting the separability of linear and nonlinear parameters in radial basis function networks
Pedro Ferreira, Antonio E Ruano · 2002
In intelligent control applications, neural models and controllers are usually designed by performing an off-line training, and then adapting it online when placed in the operating environment. It is therefore of crucial importance to obtain a good off-line model by means of a good off-line training algorithm. In the paper a method is presented that fully exploits the linear-nonlinear structure found in radial basis function networks, being additionally applicable to other feedforward supervised neural networks. The new algorithm is compared with two known hybrid methods.
