Abstract

Monolithic neural networks may be trained from measured data to establish knowledge
about the process. Unfortunately, this knowledge is not guaranteed to be found
and – if at all – hard to extract. Modular neural networks are better suited for this
purpose. Domain-ordered by topology, rule extraction is performed module by module.
This has all the benefits of a divide-and-conquer method and opens the way to
structured design. This paper discusses a next step in this direction by illustrating the
potential of base functions to design the neural model.
