Abstract
A novel learning algorithm is proposed for non linear modeling and identification by the use of the beta basis function neural network (BBFNN). The proposed method is a hierarchical particle swarm optimization (HPSO). The objective of this paper is to optimize the parameters of the beta basis function neural network (BBFNN) with high accuracy. The population of HPSO forms multiple beta neural networks with different structures at an upper hierarchical level and each particle of the previous population is optimized at a lower hierarchical level to improve the performance of each particle swarm. For the beta neural network consisting n particles are formed in the upper level to optimize the structure of the beta neural network. In the lower level, the population within the same length particle is to optimize the free parameters of the beta neural network. Experimental results on a number of benchmarks problems drawn from regression and time series prediction area demonstrate that the HPSO produces a better generalization performance.
