This paper proposes a nonlinear signal processing by using a three layered network which is trained with self-organized clustering and supervised learning. The network consists of three layers, i.e., a self-organized layer, an evaluation layer and an output layer. Since the evaluation layer is designed as a simple perceptron network and the output layer is designed as a fixed weight linear node, the training complexity is the same as a conventional one consisting of self-organized clustering and a simple perceptron network. In other words, quite high speed training can be realized. Generally speaking, since the data range is arbitrary large in signal processing, the network should cover this range and output a value as accurately as possible. However, it may be hard for only a node in the network to output these data. Instead of this mechanism, if this dynamic range is covered by using several nodes, the complexity of each node is reduced and the associated range is also limited. This results on the higher performance of the network than conventional RBFs. This paper introduces a new non-linear spectrum estimation which consists of LPC analysis and RBF network. It is shown that accuracy spectrum envelopes can be obtained since a new RBF network can estimate some nonlinearities in a speech production.
