The shape parameter in the Gaussian function

Abstract: This is the fifth of our series of works about the shape parameter. We now explore the parameter β contained in the famous gaussian function e −β|x| 2 , x ∈ R n . In the theory of radial basis functions(RBF), gaussian is frequently used in virtue of its good error bound and numerical tractability. However the optimal choice of β has been unknown. RBF people only know that β is very influential, but do not have a reliable criterion of its choice. The purpose of this paper is to uncover its mystery.

“…The reported RMSE is 0.359 which is statistically significant according to the Diebold and Mariano (1995) perspective. Besides that, the reported MAPE was also statistically significant as it indicated 0.536% that was still within the ranging range that was highlighted by Lewis (1982).…”

“…The correcting function ω i (v) are determined from condition (10). While, the unknown parameters β k , k = 1, 2, 3, ..., M and λ i , i = 1, 2, 3, ..., N are determined by substituting (11) in the governing equation ( 1) and collocate at the interior and boundary points of the solution domain.…”

“…where a t ∈ R 3 represents the gravitational acceleration of the reference position potential field to the chaser, a s ∈ R 3 represents the repulsive acceleration of the safe corridor potential field to the chaser, and a o ∈ R 3 represents the repulsive acceleration of the obstacle potential field to the chaser. Substituting equation (40) into (39) yields…”
