Abstract

Employing RBF as a function approximation method is introduced. Different types of RBF functions are considered and their effectiveness discussed, especially positive definite RBF. In order to use them in meshless techniques, their generic derivatives are presented. These functions can be employed as an activation function in a neural network for image compression. Examples for solution for partial differential equations and nonlinear heat transfer problems are presented.
