Abstract :
A method for improving the generalisation performance of constructive radial basis function (RBF) networks is proposed. Experiments using three image datasets are presented. The results show that the proposed method considerably improves performance of constructive RBF networks, outperforms multilayer perceptrons and AdaBoost and achieves comparable performance to support vector machines in these datasets.
