Recently, the combination of classification systems with semi-supervised learning has attracted researchers in several fields. Usually, for tasks with high complexity such as handwriting based age prediction, individual systems, using one classifier associated with specific data features, cannot provide satisfactory performance. In this paper, we investigate the contribution of the Co-training approach,...
This paper presents improvements in terms of accuracy for shape object classification using a new low complexity method compared to previous implementation [1]. The method is using echoes generated by a JAVA platform capable of emulate sound propagation in a controlled 2D virtual environment [2][3]. Echoes originate from the ultrasonic waves generated inside a virtual environment which contains geometrical...
In order to solve the problem of lacking shear wave velocity information in oil and gas field, based on conventional logging data, a support vector machine(SVM) model is used to map the relationship between shear wave velocity and natural gamma, acoustic time difference and resistivity of shale, and then a machine learning method for shear wave velocity prediction is proposed. The model was trained...
The great popularity of smartphones and the increase in their use in everyday applications has led to sensitive information being carried in them, such as our bank account details, passwords or emails. Motivated by the limited security of traditional systems (e.g. PIN codes, secret patterns), that can be easily broken, this work focuses on the analysis of users normal interaction with touchscreens...
Market research shows that one of the most intolerable issues in the pack of cigarettes is the cigarette missing. This issue makes substantial adverse effects on a company which needs to be avoided completely. Existing research uses a weight detection method to identity packages with issues. However, the accuracy of weight detection methods is low due to instrument error and complex workshop environment...
With the development of the aviation industry and the improvement of people's living standard, more and more people choose aircraft as their way of travel, but the airline adjusts the price according to the revenue management in real time. The purpose of this paper is to design different decision-making tools from the customer's perspective, and to provide customers with the relevant information needed...
In this current age, numerous ranges of real word applications with imbalanced dataset is one of the foremost focal point of researcher's inattention. There is the enormous increment of data generation and imbalance within dataset. Processing and knowledge extraction of huge amount of imbalanced data becomes a challenge related with space and time necessities. Generally there is a list of an assortment...
There is a nonlinear relation between the blood glucose and photoplethysmography(PPG) signal. In order to estimate the blood glucose from the photoplethysmography signal, this paper presents a non-invasive blood glucose estimation using Near-Infrared spectroscopy based on the Support Vector Regression(SVR). The wavelet transform algorithm is used to remove baseline drift and smooth signals. 22 parameters,...
Uncertainty based active learning has been well studied for selecting informative samples to improve the performance of the classifier. One of the simplest strategy is that we always select samples with top largest uncertainties for a query. However, the selected samples may be very similar to each other, which results in little information added to update the classifier. In other words, we should...
In this paper, a system to aid the visually impaired by providing contextual information of the surroundings using 360° view camera combined with deep learning is proposed. The system uses a 360° view camera with a mobile device to capture surrounding scene information and provide contextual information to the user in the form of audio. The scene information from the spherical camera feed is classified...
Keyword extraction is an automated process that collects a set of terms, illustrating an overview of the document. The term is defined how the keyword identifies the core information of a particular document. Analyzing huge number of documents to find out the relevant information, keyword extraction will be the key approach. This approach will help us to understand the depth of it even before we read...
Resistor detection are mostly suffered from compact size and multiple interferences of environment. In this paper, a method for resistor detection was proposed, which combined selective search (SS), convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and support vector machine (SVM). Using improved selective search method to reduce the time of generating candidate regions; taking advantages of independent features...
A hybrid sampling technique is proposed by combining Complementary Fuzzy Support Vector Machine (CMTFSVM) and Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) for handling the imbalanced classification problem. The proposed technique uses an optimised membership function to enhance the classification performance and it is compared with three different classifiers. The experiments consisted of four...
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...
Mislabeled examples are difficult to avoid while building large scale datasets. In this paper we discuss an efficient approach for finding those mislabeled examples. Our approach involves selecting a small number of potentially mislabeled examples for review by an expert. We demonstrate the utility of our method by finding some mislabeled examples in one large scale dataset (ImageNet). We found 92...
There has been a phenomenal increase in the utility of text classification (TC) in applications like targeted advertisement and sentiment analysis. Most applications demand that the model be efficient and robust, yet produce accurate categorizations. This is quite challenging as their is a dearth of labelled training data because it requires assigning labels after reading the whole document. Secondly,...
The process through which children learn about the world and develop perceptual, cognitive and motor skills relies heavily on object exploration in their physical world. New types of assistive technology that enable children with impairments to interact with their environment have emerged in recent years, and they could be beneficial for children's cognitive and perceptual skills development. Many...
In this paper, a fast, transparent, self-evolving, deep learning fuzzy rule-based (DLFRB) image classifier is proposed. This new classifier is a cascade of the recently introduced DLFRB classifier called MICE and an auxiliary SVM. The DLFRB classifier serves as the main engine and can identify a number of human interpretable fuzzy rules through a very short, transparent, highly parallelizable training...
This paper presents a multiple classifier system (MCS) to identify plants species based on the texture and shape features extracted from leaf images. A diverse pool of SVM and Neural Network classifiers is trained on four different feature sets, namely, Local Binary Pattern (LBP), Histogram of Gradients (HOG), Speed of Robust Features (SURF) and Zernike Moments (ZM). Then, a static classifier selection...
Image classification is a method that distinguishes the different categories of targets based on the different features of image. The current problem usually is that the feature modeling of target has a great influence on recognition robustness. In order to solve this problem, a correlation-based method is presented to optimize the bag-of-visual-word (BOVW) model by reducing the dictionary size. The...
