Daniel@0: Description Daniel@0:

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

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

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

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