Abstract

This article presents a general theoretical basis for the construction of mapping neural networks. The theory is based on the Parzen Window estimator for joint probability density functions. From the density estimator a consistent estimator for continous conditional expectation functions is deduced. The latter estimator is considered as being the general outline of a variety of mapping neural networks. Networks developed by other authors are considered special cases and a novel strategy for training such networks is presented.
