چکیده

In this paper fuzzy hypersphere neural network (FHSNN) is proposed with its learning algorithm, which is used for rotation invariant handwaritten character recognition. The FHSNN utilizes fuzzy sets as pattern classes in which each fuzzy set is an union of fuzzy set hyperspheres. The fuzzy set hypersphere is an ndimensional hypersphere defined by a center point and radius with its membership function. The handwritten characters can be in arbitrary location, scale and orientation. After moment normalization rotation invariant ring-data and Zernike moment features are extracted from characters. Finally, FHSNN algorithm is used to classify these features by its strong ability of discriminating ill-defined character classes. The performance of FHSNN algorithm is compared with other two fuzzy neural network classifiers and found to be superior with respect to the training time, recall time per pattern and the generalization.

Iris Recognition Using Modified Fuzzy Hypersphere

In this paper we describe Iris recognition using Modified Fuzzy Hypersphere Neural Network (MFHSNN) with its learning algorithm, which is an extension of Fuzzy Hypersphere Neural Network (FHSNN) proposed by Kulkarni et al. We have evaluated performance of MFHSNN classifier using different distance measures. It is observed that Bhattacharyya distance is superior in terms of training and recall t...

SUBCLASS FUZZY-SVM CLASSIFIER AS AN EFFICIENT METHOD TO ENHANCE THE MASS DETECTION IN MAMMOGRAMS

This paper is concerned with the development of a novel classifier for automatic mass detection of mammograms, based on contourlet feature extraction in conjunction with statistical and fuzzy classifiers. In this method, mammograms are segmented into regions of interest (ROI) in order to extract features including geometrical and contourlet coefficients. The extracted features benefit from...

Effective Feature Selection for Pre-Cancerous Cervix Lesions Using Artificial Neural Networks

Since most common form of cervical cancer starts with pre-cancerous changes, a flawless detection of these changes becomes an important issue to prevent and treat the cervix cancer. There are 2 ways to stop this disease from developing. One way is to find and treat pre-cancers before they become true cancers, and the other is to prevent the pre-cancers in the first place. The presented approach...

The paper analyses issues leading to errors in graphic object classifiers. Thedistance measures suggested in literature and used as a basis in traditional, fuzzy, andNeuro-Fuzzy classifiers are found to be not suitable for classification of non-stylized orfuzzy objects in which the features of classes are much more difficult to recognize becauseof significant uncertainties in their location and...

Hypersphere ART and ARTMAP for Unsupervised and Supervised, Incremental Learning

A novel adaptive resonance theory (ART) neural network architecture is being proposed. The new model, called Hypersphere ART (H-ART) is based on the same principals like Fuzzy-ART does and, thus, inherits most of its qualities for unsupervised learning. Among these properties is fast, stable, incremental learning on the training set and good generalization on the testing set. While H-ART is int...
