EvoRBF: Evolving Radial Basis Function Network by Intelligent Nature-inspired Algorithms

---

EvoRBF is a Python library that implements a framework for training Radial Basis Function (RBF) networks using Intelligence Nature-inspired Algorithms (INAs). It provides a comparable alternative to the traditional RBF network and is compatible with the Scikit-Learn library. With EvoRBF, you can perform searches and hyperparameter tuning using the functionalities provided by the Scikit-Learn library.

Usage

• Install the current PyPI release:

$ pip install evorbf

After installation, you can check EvoRBF version:

$ python
>>> import evorbf
>>> evorbf.__version__

In this example below, we will use Whale Optimization Algorithm to optimize the sigmas (in non-linear Gaussian kernel) and weights (of hidden-output layer) in RBF network (WOA-RBF model) for Diabetes prediction problem.

import numpy as np
from evorbf import Data, InaRbfRegressor
from sklearn.datasets import load_diabetes

## Load data object
# total samples = 442, total features = 10
X, y = load_diabetes(return_X_y=True)
data = Data(X, y)

## Split train and test
data.split_train_test(test_size=0.2, random_state=2)
print(data.X_train.shape, data.X_test.shape)

## Scaling dataset
data.X_train, scaler_X = data.scale(data.X_train, scaling_methods=("standard"))
data.X_test = scaler_X.transform(data.X_test)

data.y_train, scaler_y = data.scale(data.y_train, scaling_methods=("standard", ))
data.y_test = scaler_y.transform(np.reshape(data.y_test, (-1, 1)))

## Create model
opt_paras = {"name": "WOA", "epoch": 500, "pop_size": 20}
model = InaRbfRegressor(size_hidden=25, center_finder="kmean", regularization=False, lamda=0.5, obj_name="MSE",
                        optimizer="BaseGA", optimizer_paras=opt_paras, verbose=True, seed=42)

## Train the model
model.fit(data.X_train, data.y_train, lb=-1., ub=2.)

## Test the model
y_pred = model.predict(data.X_test)

print(model.optimizer.g_best.solution)
## Calculate some metrics
print(model.score(X=data.X_test, y=data.y_test, method="RMSE"))
print(model.scores(X=data.X_test, y=data.y_test, list_methods=["R2", "R", "KGE", "MAPE"]))
print(model.evaluate(y_true=data.y_test, y_pred=y_pred, list_metrics=["MSE", "RMSE", "R2S", "NSE", "KGE", "MAPE"]))
