wolffd@0: Description wolffd@0:

wolffd@0: net = gtminit(net, options, data, samptype) takes a GTM net wolffd@0: and generates a sample of latent data points and sets the centres (and wolffd@0: widths if appropriate) of wolffd@0: net.rbfnet. wolffd@0: wolffd@0:

If the samptype is 'regular', then regular grids of latent wolffd@0: data points and RBF centres are created. The dimension of the latent data wolffd@0: space must be wolffd@0: 1 or 2. For one-dimensional latent space, the lsampsize parameter wolffd@0: gives the number of latent points and the rbfsampsize parameter wolffd@0: gives the number of RBF centres. For a two-dimensional latent space, wolffd@0: these parameters must be vectors of length 2 with the number of points wolffd@0: in each of the x and y directions to create a rectangular grid. The wolffd@0: widths of the RBF basis functions are set by a call to rbfsetfw wolffd@0: passing options(7) as the scaling parameter. wolffd@0: wolffd@0:

If the samptype is 'uniform' or 'gaussian' then the wolffd@0: latent data is found by sampling from a uniform or wolffd@0: Gaussian distribution correspondingly. The RBF basis function parameters wolffd@0: are set wolffd@0: by a call to rbfsetbf with the data parameter wolffd@0: as dataset and the options vector. wolffd@0: wolffd@0:

Finally, the output layer weights of the RBF are initialised by wolffd@0: mapping the mean of the latent variable to the mean of the target variable, wolffd@0: and the L-dimensional latent variale variance to the variance of the wolffd@0: targets along the first L principal components. wolffd@0: wolffd@0:
