Record 3 - external organization data 2006-01-18

English

Subject field(s)
  • Compartment - ISO/IEC JTC 1 Information Technology Vocabulary
Universal entry(ies)
34.03.14 (2382)
ISO/IEC standard entry number
DEF

activation function that is centered at a point specified by the connection weight vector and whose position and width are adjusted by learning

OBS

In a radial basis function network, the radial basis functions are the activation functions of the hidden neurons, and constitute a basis set to represent the patterns.

OBS

A radial basis function has a maximum or a minimum, in contrast with the usual activation functions that are monotonic. The most used radial basis function is the Gaussian function.

OBS

radial basis function; RBF: term, abbreviation and definition standardized by ISO/IEC [ISO/IEC 2382-34:1999].

French

Domaine(s)
  • Tiroir - ISO/CEI JTC 1 Vocabulaire des technologies de l'information
Entrée(s) universelle(s)
34.03.14 (2382)
ISO/IEC standard entry number
DEF

fonction d'activation qui est centrée en un point déterminé par le vecteur des poids synaptiques et dont la position et la largeur sont ajustées par apprentissage

OBS

Dans un réseau à fonctions de base radiale, les fonctions de base radiales sont les fonctions d'activation des neurones cachés et constituent une base pour représenter les formes.

OBS

Une fonction de base radiale a un maximum ou un minimum, contrairement aux fonctions d'activation usuelles qui sont monotones. La fonction de base radiale la plus employée est la fonction gaussienne.

OBS

fonction de base radiale : terme et définition normalisés par l'ISO/CEI [ISO/IEC 2382-34:1999].

Record 4 1999-01-15

English

Subject field(s)
  • Applications of Automation
CONT

Standard Branching. Truly general-purpose industrial robot systems must have some way of selecting or altering the programmed path and function based on changes in the environment around them. The name given to such a facility may vary, but the purpose is the same. The robot reaches some point and interrogates an input signal to determine whether it is electrically active, or the robot is interrupted by activation of another input signal. In either case, the robot path "branches" to a section of the path/function program; if no signal is present at this decision point, or no interrupt occurs, the robot continues in a normal path sequence.

Record 5 1998-11-24

English

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence
CONT

Synchronous Versus Asynchronous Update. Another important issue is the timing of the application of the activation rule. In some models, units are updated asynchronously and at random. The usual assumption is that at each point in time each unit has a fixed probability of evaluating and applying its activation rule and updating its activation value.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Intelligence artificielle
CONT

À partir de l'équation fondamentale, la mise à jour des éléments du vecteur d'état peut se faire de différentes façons. Mode asynchrone : ici, le vecteur d'état est mis à jour élément par élément en tenant compte des nouvelles valeurs des composantes dès qu'elles sont disponibles.
