In this paper, we propose the initial optimized structure of the Radial Basis Function Network(RBFN) which is more simple in the part of the structure and converges more faster than Neural Network. For this, we use the analysis method using time frequency localization and we can decide the initial structure of the RBFN suitable for the given problem. When we compose the hidden nodes with the radial basis functions whose localization are similar with the target function in the plane of the time and frequency, we can make a good decision of the initial structure having an ability of approximation.

플라즈마 공정 모델 개발에 역전파 신경망이 가장 많이 응용되고 있으나, 관여하는 다수의 학습인자로 인해 그 최적화가 매우 어렵다. Radial basis function network (RBFN)은 관여하는 학습인자의 수가 적어 그 최적화가 상대적으로 용이하지만, 두인자의 다양한 조합에 의해 RBFN의 예측성능이 상당히 영향을 받을 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 학습인자 상호간의 작용을 유전자 알고리즘 (genetic algorithm-GA)을 이용하여 최적화하는 기법을 소개한다. 제안하는 알고리즘을 광도파로 제작을 위해 수행한 실리카 식각공정 데이터에 적용하여 평가하였다. 평가에 이용된 식각 응답은, 실리카 식각률, aluminum (Al) 식각률, Al 선택비, 그리고 실리카 프로파일 각도이다. 최적화한 모델은 종래의 모델과 비교하였으며, 그 향상도는 실리카 식각률, Al 식각률, Al 선택비, 그리고 실리카 프로파일 각도에 대해서 각 기 0.8%, 32.4%, 20.3%, 1.3% 등이었다. Al 식각률과 선택비에 대해서 예측성능은 상당이 향상되었다.

반도체공정 최적화에 소요되는 시간과 경비를 줄이기 위해 신경망 모델이 개발되고 있다. 주로 역전파 신경망을 이용하여 모델이 개발되고 있으며, 본 연구에서는 Radial Basis Function Network (RBFN)을 이용하여 플라즈마 식각공정 모델을 개발한다. 실험데이터는 유도결합형 플라즈마를 이용한 Silicon Carbide 박막의 식각공정으로부터 수집되었다. 모델개발을 위해 $2^4$ 전인자 (full factorial) 실험계획법이 적용되었으며, 모델에 이용된 식각응답은 식각률과 atomic force microscopy로 측정한 식각표면 거칠기이다. 모델검증을 위해 추가적으로 16번의 실험을 수행하였다. RBFN의 예측성능은 세 학습인자, 즉 뉴런수, width, 초기 웨이트 분포 (initial weight distribution-IWD) 크기에 의해 결정된다. 본 연구에서는 각 학습인자의 영향을 최적화하였으며, IWD의 불규칙성을 고려하여 주어진 학습인자에 대해서 100개의 모델을 발생하고, 이중 최소의 IWD를 갖는 모델을 선택하였다. 최적화한 식각률과 표면거칠기 모델의 RMSE는 각기 26 nm/min과 0.103 nm이었다. 통계적인 회귀모델과 비교하여, 식각률과 표면거칠기 모델은 각기 52%와 24%의 향상된 예측정확도를 보였다. 이로써 RBFN이 플라즈마 공정을 효과적으로 모델링 할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Learning behaviors of a radial basis function network (RBFN) using a singular value decomposition (SVD) and stochastic gradient (SG) algorithm, together named RBF-SVD-SG, for odor sensing systems are analyzed, and a fast training method is proposed. RBF input data is from a conducting polymer sensor array. It is revealed in this paper that the SG algorithm for the fine-tuning of centers and widths still shows ill-behaving learning results when a sufficiently small convergence coefficient is not used. Since the tuning of centers in RBFN plays a dominant role in the performance of RBFN odor sensing systems, our analysis is focused on the center-gradient variance of the RBFN-SVD-SG algorithm. We found analytically that the steadystate weight fluctuation and large values of a convergence coefficient can lead to an increase in variance of the center-gradient estimate. Based on this analysis, we propose to use the least mean square algorithm instead of SVD in adjusting the weight for stable steady-state weight behavior. Experimental results of the proposed algorithm have shown faster learning speed and better classification performance.

This paper proposes a novel pattern recognition approach based on the radial basis function (RBF) neural network for identifying insulation defects of high-voltage electrical apparatus arising from partial discharge (PD). Pattern recognition of PD is used for identifying defects causing the PD, such as internal discharge, external discharge, corona, etc. This information is vital for estimating the harmfulness of the discharge in the insulation. Since an insulation defect, such as one resulting from PD, would have a corresponding particular pattern, pattern recognition of PD is significant means to discriminate insulation conditions of high-voltage electrical apparatus. To verify the proposed approach, experiments were conducted to demonstrate the field-test PD pattern recognition of cast resin current transformer (CRCT) models. These tests used artificial defects created in order to produce the common PD activities of CRCTs by using feature vectors of field-test PD patterns. The significant features are extracted by using nonlinear principal component analysis (NLPCA) method. The experimental data are found to be in close agreement with the recognized data. The test results show that the proposed approach is efficient and reliable.

This paper presents the optimized approximation of finite element modeling for a complex tool holder spindle using both DOE (Design of Experiment) with Optimal Latin Hypercube (OLH) method and approximation modeling method with Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural network structure. The complex tool holder is used for holding a (milling/drilling) tool of a machine tool. The engineering problem of complex tool holder results from the twisting of spindle of tool holder. For this purpose, we present the optimized approximation of finite element modeling for a complex tool holder spindle using both DOE (Design of Experiment) with Optimal Latin Hypercube (OLH) method (specifically a module of $iSight^{(R)}$ FD-3.1) and approximation modeling method with Radial Basis Function (RBF) (another module of $iSight^{(R)}$ FD-3.1) neural network structure

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.

반도체 제조공정 중 식각공정(Etching)은 웨이퍼표면으로부터 화학적, 물리적으로 불필요한 물질들을 선택적으로 제거하는 방법이다. 식각공정 중 하나인 플라즈마 식각(Plasma etching) 공정에서 오버식각(over-etching) 과언더식각(under-etching) 되는것을피하기위해서통계적인방법을기준으로식각종료점(endpoint)를 결정한다. 본 논문의 목표는 통계적인 분석방법을 이용하지 않고 실시간 식각 데이터(realtime etching data)를 사용해서 식각 종료점을 검출하는 것이다. 식각 데이터는 시계열 데이터(time-series data)이기 때문에 간단한 구조와 적은 계산량으로 빠른 수렴속도와 좋은 안정도를 가진 Radial Basis Function Neural Network's (RBF-NN) 를 이용하여 시계열 모델(time-series model)을 구현 하였다. 광학방사분광기(Optical Emission Spectroscopy: OES)로부터 나온 6개의 데이터 세트중에서 4개의 데이터 세트는 RBF-NN을 학습하는데 사용되고 2개의 데이터 세트는 모델의 성과를 시험해 보기 위하여 사용하였다. 학습을 위한 데이터들은 Matrix화 시켜서 목표값을 설정하여 학습시킨다. 실험한 결과 학습한 RBF-NN 모형이 식각 종료점(endpoint)를 정확하게 검출된다는 것을 보여준다.

Recently, the quick development rate of apps in the Android platform has led to an accelerated increment in creating malware applications by cyber attackers. Numerous Android malware detection tools have utilized conventional signature-based approaches to detect malware apps. However, these conventional strategies can't identify the latest apps on whether applications are malware or not. Many new malware apps are periodically discovered but not all malware Apps can be accurately detected. Hence, there is a need to propose intelligent approaches that are able to detect the newly developed Android malware applications. In this study, Radial Basis Function (RBF) networks are trained using known Android applications and then used to detect the latest and new Android malware applications. Initially, the optimal permission features of Android apps are selected using Information Gain Ratio (IGR). Appropriately, the features selected by IGR are utilized to train the RBF networks in order to detect effectively the new Android malware apps. The empirical results showed that RBF achieved the best detection accuracy (97.20%) among other common machine learning techniques. Furthermore, RBF accomplished the best detection results in most of the other measures.

In this paper we introduce a new algorithm that enables radial basis function network(RBFN) to be structured automatically and guarantees the stability of the RBFN. Because this new algorithm is efficient and also have the advantage of fast computational speed we adopt this algorithm as online learning scheme for uncertain nonlinear dynamical systems. Based on the fact that a 3-layered RBFN can represent a specific nonlinear function reasonably well by linearly combining a set of nonlinear and localized basis functions, we show that this RBFN can identify the nonlinear system very well without knowing the information of the system in advance.
