One-Against-All Multiclass Classification Based on Multiple Complementary Neural Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In general, there are two ways to deal with one-against-all multiclass neural network classification. The first way is the use of a single k-class neural network trained with multiple outputs. Another way is the use of multiple binary neural networks. This paper focuses on the later way in which multiple complementary neural networks are applied to one-against-all instead of using only multiple binary neural networks. We experiment our proposed technique using the glass data set which is one of the extremely unbalance data sets from the UCI machine learning repository. It is found that our approach improves classification performance when compared to the existing one-against-all techniques based on a single k-class neural network, a single k-class complementary neural networks, and multiple binary neural networks. Key–Words: multiclass classification, feedforward backpropagation neural network, complementary neural networks, one-against-all, one-against-one, p-against-q

Applying Multiple Complementary Neural Networks to Solve Multiclass Classification Problem
In this paper, a multiclass classification problem is solved using multiple complementary neural networks. Two techniques are applied to multiple complementary neural networks which are one-against-all and error correcting output codes. We experiment our proposed techniques using an extremely imbalance data set named glass from the UCI machine learning repository. It is found that the combinati...
متن کاملCombining Multiple Pairwise Neural Networks Classifiers: A Comparative Study
Classifier combination constitutes an interesting approach when solving multiclass classification problems. We review standard methods used to decode the decomposition generated by a one-against-one approach. New decoding methods are proposed and are compared to standard methods. A stacking decoding is also proposed and consists in replacing the whole decoding by a trainable classifier to arbit...
متن کاملA comparison of methods for multiclass support vector machines
Support vector machines (SVMs) were originally designed for binary classification. How to effectively extend it for multiclass classification is still an ongoing research issue. Several methods have been proposed where typically we construct a multiclass classifier by combining several binary classifiers. Some authors also proposed methods that consider all classes at once. As it is computation...
متن کاملLithofacies Classification from Well Log Data using Neural Networks, Interval Neutrosophic Sets and Quantification of Uncertainty
This paper proposes a novel approach to the question of lithofacies classification based on an assessment of the uncertainty in the classification results. The proposed approach has multiple neural networks (NN), and interval neutrosophic sets (INS) are used to classify the input well log data into outputs of multiple classes of lithofacies. A pair of n-class neural networks are used to predict...
متن کاملMulticlass Classification using Neural Networks and Interval Neutrosophic Sets
This paper presents a new approach to the problem of multiclass classification. The proposed approach has the capability to provide an assessment of the uncertainty value associated with the results of the prediction. Two feed-forward backpropagation neural networks, each with multiple outputs, are used. One network is used to predict degrees of truth membership and another network is used to p...
