Abstract

Structures of neural networks are usually designed by experts to fit target problems. This study proposes a method to automate small network design for a regression problem based on the Add-if-Silent (AiS) function used in the neocognitron. Because the original AiS is designed for image pattern recognition, this study modifies the intermediate function to be Radial Basis Function (RBF). This study shows that the proposed method can determine an optimized network structure using the Bike Sharing Dataset as one case study. The generalization performance is also shown.
