We consider the probabilistic neural network (PNN) that is a mixture of Gaussian basis functions having different variances. Such a Gaussian heteroscedastic PNN is more economic, in terms of the number of kernel functions required, than the Gaussian mixture PNN of a common variance. The expectation-
By replacing the sigmoid activation function often used in neural networks with an exponential function, a probabilistic neural network (PNN) that can compute nonlinear decision boundaries which approach the Bayes optimal is formed. Alternate activation functions having similar properties are also d
The Boltzmann machine is a probabilistic neural network describing the associative dependency of variables. It yields a probability distribution, which is a special case of the distribution generated by probabilistic inference networks. Hence both types of networks can be combined allowing to integr
