Abstract(in English) It is well known that we must setup appropriate number of hidden units for neural networks to make the generalization ability of the neural network maximum. In this paper, we propose a method for reducing the number of hidden units for RBF metworks, which has already finished the learning of sample patterns. In this method, the RBF network dose not relearn the sample patterns during the reduction process, so this method can be applied to several fields, where the system has no capacity to store the sample patterns. For example, this system can be used for reducing the number of hidden units of the network which has learned an environment by reinforcement learning.
