Even though the various features of satirical language have been studied in computational linguistics, most of the research works have relied on the performance of the single machine learning algorithm. However, the implicit traits embedded in the language demand more certain, precise and accurate combination powers of an individual algorithm. In this study, we analyzed the performance of emotion-based...
The current focus of our research is to detect and classify the plant disease in agricultural domain, by implementing image processing techniques. We aim to propose an innovative set of statistical texture features for classification of plant diseases images of leaves. The input images are taken by various mobile cameras. The Scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT) features used as texture feature...
This paper presents a support vector machine (SVM) based model predictive control (MPC) strategy to manage the engine speed to the set-point of idle speed. The predictive model is trained by SVM due to its accuracy of learning nonlinear process, simple training program and no over-fitting nature. To reduce the computational burden of controller and retain the dynamic information of system, the instantaneous...
SVM (Support Vector Machine), a state of the art classifier model is implemented on a computational mobile platform and its performances are evaluated against a low complexity classifier such as SFSVC (Super Fast Vector Support Classifier) on the same platform. For a better comparison, similar implementation for the two architectures are considered, such as using the same basic linear algebra library...
Human action recognition in video is highly challenging due to the substantial variations in motion performance, recording settings and inter-personal differences. Most current research focuses on the extraction of effective features and the design of suitable classifiers. Conversely, in this paper we tackle this problem by a dissimilarity-based approach where classification is performed in terms...
Pooling second-order local feature statistics to form a high-dimensional bilinear feature has been shown to achieve state-of-the-art performance on a variety of fine-grained classification tasks. To address the computational demands of high feature dimensionality, we propose to represent the covariance features as a matrix and apply a low-rank bilinear classifier. The resulting classifier can be evaluated...
We propose a novel and principled hybrid CNN+CRF model for stereo estimation. Our model allows to exploit the advantages of both, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and conditional random fields (CRFs) in an unified approach. The CNNs compute expressive features for matching and distinctive color edges, which in turn are used to compute the unary and binary costs of the CRF. For inference, we apply...
Vehicle logo recognition is an important part of vehicle identification in intelligent transportation systems. State-of-the-art vehicle logo recognition approaches typically consider training models on large datasets. However, there might only be a small training dataset to start with and more images can be obtained during the real-time applications. This paper proposes an online image recognition...
Nowadays a huge volume of biomedical data (images, genes, etc) are daily generated. The interpretation of such data involves a considerable expertise. The misinterpretation and/or misdetection of a suspicious clinical finding leads to increasing the negligence claims, and redundant procedures (e.g. biopsies). The analysis of biomedical data is a complex task which are performed by specialists on whose...
We consider a declarative framework for machine learning where concepts and hypotheses are defined by formulas of a logic over some “background structure”. We show that within this framework, concepts defined by first-order formulas over a background structure of at most polylogarithmic degree can be learned in polylogarithmic time in the “probably approximately correct” learning sense.
The optimal parameters of noise suppression for detection of snoring activity are analyzed and we improve performance of detection of snoring activity in this paper. For detection of snoring activity, we use a Support Vector Machine which is one of machine learning. By training of grand truth and features, the SVM model is obtained. By applying test date to the SVM model, it is classified into snoring...
When beginners practice Chinese calligraphy, they often copy from ancient calligraphic works and try to imitate the style as closely as possible. However there are inevitably some characters whose styles are not correctly followed. Thus we are motivated to detect the style consistency of all written characters in one practice. With the styles extracted by using stacked autoencoders of deep neural...
Target recognition is a key technology in guided weapon systems. In this paper, an algorithm of target recognition based on local part is presented for the armored target in complex background. By constructing a variable target model to identify the local part of the target, the latent support vector machine is used to find the position of the part, and the position of the whole target is identified...
Stencil computations expose a large and complex space of equivalent implementations. These computations often rely on autotuning techniques, based on iterative compilation or machine learning (ML), to achieve high performance. Iterative compilation autotuning is a challenging and time-consuming task that may be unaffordable in many scenarios. Meanwhile, traditional ML autotuning approaches exploiting...
Recent years have seen a growing interest in neural networks whose hidden-layer weights are randomly selected, such as Extreme Learning Machines (ELMs). These models are motivated by their ease of development, high computational learning speed and relatively good results. Alternatively, constructive models that select the hidden-layer weights as a subset of the data have shown superior performance...
In this paper we propose five Neural Network models for forecasting public transit. These models are evaluated in terms of accuracy and robustness. The research has two major objectives: to identify the best performing machine learning model in predicting bus travel time and to establish a set of methods in order to obtain a detailed dataset (a variety of practical input values) which will further...
The FRaC anomaly detection algorithm has been previously used to identify anomalous mRNA expression patterns, and has served as the core of an approach that characterizes individual anomalies by identifying dysregulated molecular functions. However, FRaC operates by training supervised models for each feature in a data set. Thus, scaling to substantially larger data sets, such as those reflecting...
Classification is at the very center of the supervised learning. In this work, we propose a novel algorithm to classify the test data set with the aid of a vector field, emanating from the training data set. In particular, the vector field is constructed such that the location of each training data point becomes a local minimum of the potential. The test data points are allowed to evolve under the...
The intent of the image classification process is to objectively categorize an image visual contents into semantic meanings. The classification process is a challenging task due to the difficulty associated with extracting and identifying relevant shape information. In this paper, we introduce a new fusion algorithm that combines the strengths of deep learning and mid-level image descriptors. Our...
The problem of inferring the hidden state of individual nodes in social/sensor networks in which node activities affect their neighbors is growing in importance. We present an undirected generative model, a type of probabilistic model that has so far not been used for modeling latent variables influenced by neighbors in a network. We also propose an efficient inference method based on variational...
