Definitions of distance function in radial basis function approach

Abstract

Very few studies involve how to construct the efficient RBFs by means of problem features. Recently the present author presented general solution RBF (GS-RBF) methodology to create operator-dependent RBFs successfully [1]. On the other hand, the normal radial basis function (RBF) is defined via Euclidean space distance function or the geodesic distance [2]. This purpose of this note is to redefine distance function in conjunction with problem features, which include problem-dependent and time-space distance function.
