Bacterial Growth Classification with Support Vector Machines: A Comparative Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose to use support vector machines for classification of bacterial growth and non growth database and modeling the probability of growth. Unlike artificial neural networks paradigms, support vector machines use the kernel functions and support vectors with maximum margin, which allows a better performance. As a practical application of the new approach, support vector machines were investigated for their quality and accuracy in classification of growth/no-growth state of a pathogenic Escherichia coli R31 in response to temperature and water activity. A comparison with the most common used statistics, machine learning, and data mining schemes was carried out. The results shows that support vector machines classifier based on the Gaussian RBF Kernel was found to do better than most of logistic regression, K-nearest neighbor, probabilistic networks, and multilayer perceptron classifiers.

متن کاملA Comparative Study of Extreme Learning Machines and Support Vector Machines in Prediction of Sediment Transport in Open Channels
The limiting velocity in open channels to prevent long-term sedimentation is predicted in this paper using a powerful soft computing technique known as Extreme Learning Machines (ELM). The ELM is a single Layer Feed-forward Neural Network (SLFNN) with a high level of training speed. The dimensionless parameter of limiting velocity which is known as the densimetric Froude number (Fr) is predicte...

A Comparative Study of Gender and Age Classification in Speech Signals
Accurate gender classification is useful in speech and speaker recognition as well as speech emotion classification, because a better performance has been reported when separate acoustic models are employed for males and females. Gender classification is also apparent in face recognition, video summarization, human-robot interaction, etc. Although gender classification is rather mature in a...
متن کاملA QUADRATIC MARGIN-BASED MODEL FOR WEIGHTING FUZZY CLASSIFICATION RULES INSPIRED BY SUPPORT VECTOR MACHINES
Recently, tuning the weights of the rules in Fuzzy Rule-Base Classification Systems is researched in order to improve the accuracy of classification. In this paper, a margin-based optimization model, inspired by Support Vector Machine classifiers, is proposed to compute these fuzzy rule weights. This approach not only considers both accuracy and generalization criteria in a single objective fu...
