Choosing Shape Features by means of Genetic Algorithms for Glyph-clustering of Historical Documents
نویسندگان
چکیده
The solution for a feature selection problem is presented in the field of document image processing. The choice of shape features for describing glyphs of historical documents is a non-trivial task since the variations of glyphs in different documents is innumerable. Hence, the manual selection of shape features would be a cumbersome task. To select a subset of features from a given set a genetic algorithm is used which optimises the result of a clustering process by x-means. The result of x-means is evaluated by using different quality measures. The optimisation methodology is illustrated within a case study, in which the selection of an appropriate set of features is a crucial part of the system. The intended application supports a user who is transcribing historical documents by showing him similar occurrences of a given glyph.

Intrusion detection systems (IDS) by exploiting Machine learning techniques are able to diagnose attack traffics behaviors. Because of relatively large numbers of features in IDS standard benchmark dataset, like KDD CUP 99 and NSL_KDD, features selection methods play an important role. Optimization algorithms like Genetic algorithms (GA) are capable of finding near-optimum combination of the fe...

متن کاملA Hybrid Data Clustering Algorithm Using Modified Krill Herd Algorithm and K-MEANS
Data clustering is the process of partitioning a set of data objects into meaning clusters or groups. Due to the vast usage of clustering algorithms in many fields, a lot of research is still going on to find the best and efficient clustering algorithm. K-means is simple and easy to implement, but it suffers from initialization of cluster center and hence trapped in local optimum. In this paper...
