In this paper, we address the problem of numerical integration, which can be solved by kernel quadrature. Existing methods have limitations. In particular, the nodes are not well-balanced when their number is small. We propose two new methods for generating nodes for quadrature in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. By using the explicit formula for the error of the quadrature, we improve a set of a fixed number of sampling points with a tractable optimization algorithm. We provide a theoretical
