Abstract In this work, a system based on Radial Basis Function Network was developed to estimate Gross Domestic Product per capita. The data set based on 180 academic parameters of 13 Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development countries was used to verify the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed method. Gross Domestic Product per capita was studied to be estimated for the first time with academic parameters in this study. The system has been optimized using feature selection method to eliminate unimportant features. Radial Basis Function network results and Radial Basis Function network with feature selection method results were compared. The… More >
