Aiming at addressing the problems of short battery life, low payload and unmeasured load ratio of logistics Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), the Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural network was trained with the flight data of logistics UAV from the Internet of Things to predict the flight status of logistics UAVs. Under the condition that there are few available input samples and the convergence of RBF neural network is not accurate, a dynamic adjustment method of RBF neural network structure based on information entropy is proposed. This method calculates the information entropy of hidden layer neurons and output layer neurons, and quantifies the output information of hidden layer neurons and the interaction information between hidden layer neurons and output layer neurons. The structural design and optimization of RBF neural network were solved by increasing the hidden layer neurons or disconnecting unnecessary connections, according to the connection strength between neurons. The steepest descent learning algorithm was used to correct the parameters of the network structure to ensure the convergence accuracy of the RBF neural network. By predicting the regression values of the flight status of logistics UAVs, it is demonstrated that the information entropy-based RBF neural network proposed in this paper has good approximation ability for the prediction of nonlinear systems.

In order to improve the accuracy of shooting in basketball. A shooting accuracy prediction method based on the convergent improved resource allocating network (CIRAN) online radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) is proposed, and the RBFNN learning algorithm is improved. Through the collection of shooting motion images, feature point extraction, and edge contour feature extraction, the shooting motion trajectory is obtained. Using the online neural network based on the CIRAN learning algorithm to predict the accuracy of shooting, this method analyzes the radial basis function (RBF) network. Based on the RBF analysis, the number of network layers and the number of hidden layer neurons are adjusted and optimized. In order to improve the prediction accuracy of shooting in basketball, a method based on. Through the analysis, it can be known that the accuracy of both the traditional RBFNN and the CIRAN-based online neural network for the prediction of shooting accuracy is above 70%. The prediction accuracy of the online neural network for shooting is higher than that of the traditional one. This is mainly because the online update function of the learning algorithm can better adjust the corresponding structure with the development of the game and has a better generalization ability. In addition, because the CIRAN learning algorithm introduces the hidden layer neuron deletion strategy, its network structure is simpler than that of the traditional one, the number of hidden layer neurons is less, and the running time required is less, which can better meet the real-time requirements and provide a more scientific method for basketball training.

The neural network has the advantages of self-learning, self-adaptation, and fault tolerance. It can establish a qualitative and quantitative evaluation model which is closer to human thought patterns. However, the structure and the convergence rate of the radial basis function (RBF) neural network need to be improved. This paper proposes a new variable structure radial basis function (VS-RBF) with a fast learning rate, in order to solve the problem of structural optimization design and parameter learning algorithm for the radial basis function neural network. The number of neurons in the hidden layer is adjusted by calculating the output information of neurons in the hidden layer and the multi-information between neurons in the hidden layer and output layer. This method effectively solves the problem that the RBF neural network structure is too large or too small. The convergence rate of the RBF neural network is improved by using the robust regression algorithm and the fast learning rate algorithm. At the same time, the convergence analysis of the VS-RBF neural network is given to ensure the stability of the RBF neural network. Compared with other self-organizing RBF neural networks (self-organizing RBF (SORBF) and rough RBF neural networks (RS-RBF)), VS-RBF has a more compact structure, faster dynamic response speed, and better generalization ability. The simulations of approximating a typical nonlinear function, identifying UCI datasets, and evaluating sortie generation capacity of an carrier aircraft show the effectiveness of VS-RBF.

Smart growth is widely adopted by urban planners as an innovative approach, which can guide a city to develop into an environmentally friendly modern city. Therefore, determining the degree of smart growth is quite significant. In this paper, sustainable degree (SD) is proposed to evaluate the level of urban smart growth, which is established by principal component regression (PCR) and the radial basis function (RBF) neural network. In the case study of Yumen and Otago, the SD values of Yumen and Otago are 0.04482 and 0.04591, respectively, and both plans are moderately successful. Yumen should give more attention to environmental development while Otago should concentrate on economic development. In order to make a reliable future plan, a self-organizing map (SOM) is conducted to classify all indicators and the RBF neural network-trained indicators are separate under different classifications to output new plans. Finally, the reliability of the plan is confirmed by cellular automata (CA). Through simulation of the trend of urban development, it is found that the development speed of Yumen and Otago would increase slowly in the long term. This paper provides a powerful reference for cities pursuing smart growth.

This paper addresses the upset prediction problem of friction welded joints. Based on finite element simulations of inertia friction welding (IFW), a radial basis function (RBF) neural network was developed initially to predict the final upset for a number of welding parameters. The predicted joint upset by the RBF neural network was compared to validated finite element simulations, producing an error of less than 8.16% which is reasonable. Furthermore, the effects of initial rotational speed and axial pressure on the upset were investigated in relation to energy conversion with the RBF neural network. The developed RBF neural network was also applied to linear friction welding (LFW) and continuous drive friction welding (CDFW). The correlation coefficients of RBF prediction for LFW and CDFW were 0.963 and 0.998, respectively, which further suggest that an RBF neural network is an effective method for upset prediction of friction welded joints.
