چکیده

It has been shown that Support Vector Machine theory optimizes a smoothness functional hypothesis through kernel application. We present KMOD, a two-parameter SVM kernel with distinctive properties of good discrimination between patterns while preserving the data neighborhood information. In classi£cation problems, the experiments we carried out on the Breast Cancer benchmark produced better performance than RBF kernel and some state of the art classi£ers. As well, it also generated favorable results when subjected to a 10-class problem of recognizing handwritten digits in the NIST database.

KMOD - A New Support Vector Machine Kernel with Moderate Decreasing for Pattern Recognition. Application to Digit Image Recognition

A new direction in machine learning area has emerged from Vapnik’s theory in support vectors machine and its applications on pattern recognition. In this paper, we propose a new SVM kernel family (KMOD) with distinctive properties that allow better discrimination in the feature space. The experiments that we carry out show its effectiveness on synthetic and large-scale data. We found KMOD behav...

Object Recognition based on Local Steering Kernel and SVM

The proposed method is to recognize objects based on application of Local Steering Kernels (LSK) as Descriptors to the image patches. In order to represent the local properties of the images, patch is to be extracted where the variations occur in an image. To find the interest point, Wavelet based Salient Point detector is used. Local Steering Kernel is then applied to the resultant pixels, in ...

Empirical error based optimization of SVM kernels: application to digit image recognition

We address the problem of optimizing kernel parameters in Support Vector Machine modeling, especially when the number of parameters is greater than one as in polynomial kernels and KMOD, our newly introduced kernel. The present work is an extended experimental study of the framework proposed by Chapelle et al. for optimizing SVM kernels using an analytic upper bound of the error. However, our o...

Research on Classification Method of Combining Support Vector Machine and Genetic Algorithm for Motor Imagery EEG

The support vector machine (SVM) shows many unique advantages in solving the small sample, nonlinear and high dimensional pattern recognition problems, and it is very suitable to solve the classification problem in motor imagery EEG. For SVM using radial basis function (RBF) kernel, two parameters had to be selected beforehand: the trade-off parameter C and the kernel parameter σ. The tradition...
