By combining the RBF approach with the latest relativistic continuum Hartree-Bogoliubov(RCHB) model, the local systematic deviations between the RCHB mass predictions and the experimental data are eliminated, and the root-meansquare(rms) mass deviation is significantly reduced from 7.923 MeV to 0.386 MeV. However, systematic deviations between the RBF improved mass predictions and the experimental data remain for nuclei with four different odd-even parities, i.e.(even Z, even N),(even Z, odd N),(odd Z, even N), and(odd Z, odd N). They can be reduced by separately training RBF for the four groups of nuclei, and the resulting rms deviation decreases to 0.229 MeV. It is found that the RBF approach can describe the deformation effects neglected in the present RCHB mass calculations, and also improves the description of the shell effect and the pairing effect.展开更多
