Title
A Growing Algorithm For Training Of Rbf Density Estimation Network
Abstract
The paper presents a growing algorithm for the learning of a radial basis function (RBF) density estimation network. The algorithm resembles to the Adaptive Resonance Theory (ART) algorithms in that it recruits kernels when the current network can not account for the newly observed datum. The recruiting mechanism is based, however, on a model-complexity criterion rather than a vigilance parameter. The algorithm adjusts the network parameters as well as the number of hidden nodes so as to optimize network's performance as a parsimonious density estimator. Simulation results for a set of experiments show the good performance of the algorithm, in terms of both estimation accuracy and the number of deployed kernels, as compared to a vigilance parameter-based algorithm.
