Abstract :
Radial basis function (RBF) networks with one hidden layer are considered. Using the connections between RBF nets and the kernel regression estimates (KRE) upper bounds on L2 errors of RBF nets are derived and optimized with respect to the radial functions. Analytical expressions the optimal radial functions are given and the optimal rates of convergence in the class smooth functions are derived
