In this paper, we studied for phoneme recognition using GPFN and PNN as a kind of RBFN. The structure of RBFN is similar to a feedforward networks but different from choosing of activation function, reference vector and learnign algorithm in a hidden layer. Expecially sigmoid function in PNN is replaced by one category included exponential function. And total calculation performance is high, because PNN performs pattern classification with out learning. In phonemerecognition experiment with 5 vowel and 12 consant, recognition rates of GPFN and PNN as a kind of RBFN reflected statistic characteristic of speech are higher than ones of MLP in case of using test data and quantizied data by VQ and LVQ.
