ADAPTIVE POLYNOMIAL FILTERS WITH INDIVIDUAL LEARNING RATES FOR COMPUTATIONALLY EFFICIENT LUNG TUMOR MOTION PREDICTION

This paper presents a study of higher-order neural units as polynomial adaptive filters with multiple-learning-rate gradient descent for 3-D lung tumor motion prediction. The method is compared with single-learning rate gradient descent approaches with and without learning rate normalization. Experimental analysis is done with linear and quadratic neural unit. The influence of correct selection of adaptation parameters and the dependence of learning time on accuracy were experimentally analyzed. The prediction accuracy is nearly equal to recently published results of batch retraining approaches while the computational efficiency is higher for the introduced approach.
