Improved Tropical Wood Species Recognition System based on Multi-feature Extractor and Classifier
نویسنده
چکیده
An automated wood recognition system is designed to classify tropical wood species.The wood features are extracted based on two feature extractors: Basic Grey Level Aura Matrix (BGLAM) technique and statistical properties of pores distribution (SPPD) technique. Due to the nonlinearity of the tropical wood species separation boundaries, a pre classification stage is proposed which consists ofKmeans clusteringand kernel discriminant analysis (KDA). Finally, Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) classifier and KNearest Neighbour (KNN) are implemented for comparison purposes. The study involves comparison of the system with and without pre classification using KNN classifier and LDA classifier.The results show that the inclusion of the pre classification stage has improved the accuracy of both the LDA and KNN classifiers by more than 12%. Keywords—Tropical wood species, nonlinear data, feature extractors, classification

متن کاملHandwritten Word Recognition Using Multi-view Analysis
This paper brings a contribution to the problem of efficiently recognizing handwritten words from a limited size lexicon. For that, a multiple classifier system has been developed that analyzes the words from three different approximation levels, in order to get a computational approach inspired on the human reading process. For each approximation level a three-module architecture composed of a...
متن کاملFingerprint classification approaches: an overview
Fingerprint classification was introduced to reduce searching time of fingerprint recognition. There have’been many new approaches introduced, mostly in the design of feature extraction. However, no literatures to date explicitly documents all fingerprint classification approaches. On the other hand, this paper studies on some of the current approaches by grouping them into two groups classifie...
