Improving Classification Rates by Modelling the Clusters of Trainings Sets in Features Space Using Mathematical Morphology Operators
نویسندگان
چکیده
The exploration of the features presented by the training sets of each class (size, shape and orientation) in order to construct the respective decision regions borders without making explicitly any statistical hypothesis is presented in this paper. Its incorporation allows defining more correct decision borders since there is a significant improvement in the classification rates obtained. Mathematical morphology operators are preferentially used in this methodology, which is illustrated with two spectral features (wetness' tasselled cap and NDVI's vegetation index) of seven land cover classes constructed from Landsat TM satellite images of central Portugal.

Phoneme Classification Using Temporal Tracking of Speech Clusters in Spectro-temporal Domain
This article presents a new feature extraction technique based on the temporal tracking of clusters in spectro-temporal features space. In the proposed method, auditory cortical outputs were clustered. The attributes of speech clusters were extracted as secondary features. However, the shape and position of speech clusters change during the time. The clusters temporally tracked and temporal tra...

In this paper, pretopological and topological operators are introduced based on partially continuous linear transformations of the membership and non-membership functions for intuitionistic fuzzy sets. They turn out to be a generalization of the topological operators for intuitionistic fuzzy sets.On the other hand it is a generalization of the fuzzy set pretopological operators introduced...

One of the important issues in speech emotion recognizing is selecting of appropriate feature sets in order to improve the detection rate and classification accuracy. In last studies researchers tried to select the appropriate features for classification by using the selecting and reducing the space of features methods, such as the Fisher and PCA. In this research, a hybrid evolutionary algorit...
متن کاملCONSTRUCTION OF DECISION REGION BORDERS BY GEOMETRIC MODELLING OF TRAINING SETS Application to land cover classes in remotely sensed images
In this paper a novel methodology to construct decision region borders that geometrically models the training sets of points is presented. It is shown that with the incorporation of the features of the training sets more correct decision borders are designed and, in consequence, higher classification rates are obtained. This methodology is completely based on mathematical morphology operators a...
متن کاملTopological Modelling and Classification of Mammographic Microcalcification Clusters
Goal: The presence of microcalcification clusters is a primary sign of breast cancer; however, it is difficult and time consuming for radiologists to classify microcalcifications as malignant or benign. In this paper, a novel method for the classification of microcalcification clusters in mammograms is proposed. Methods: The topology/connectivity of individual microcalcifications is analysed wi...
