Combining classifiers: Soft computing solutions
نویسنده
چکیده
Classifier combination is now an established pattern recognition subdiscipline. Despite the strong aspiration for theoretical studies, classifier combination relies mainly on heuristic and empirical solutions. Assuming that “soft computing” encompasses neural networks, evolutionary computation, and fuzzy sets, we explain how each of the three components has been used in classifier combination.

COMBINING FUZZY QUANTIFIERS AND NEAT OPERATORS FOR SOFT COMPUTING
This paper will introduce a new method to obtain the order weightsof the Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operator. We will first show therelation between fuzzy quantifiers and neat OWA operators and then offer anew combination of them. Fuzzy quantifiers are applied for soft computingin modeling the optimism degree of the decision maker. In using neat operators,the ordering of the inputs is not...
متن کاملA Game-Theoretic Approach to Weighted Majority Voting for Combining SVM Classifiers
A new approach from the game-theoretic point of view is proposed for the problem of optimally combining classifiers in dichotomous choice situations. The analysis of weighted majority voting under the viewpoint of coalition gaming, leads to the existence of analytical solutions to optimal weights for the classifiers based on their prior competencies. The general framework of weighted majority r...

This study investigates the prediction model of compressive strength of self–compacting concrete (SCC) by utilizing soft computing techniques. The techniques consist of adaptive neuro–based fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), artificial neural network (ANN) and the hybrid of particle swarm optimization with passive congregation (PSOPC) and ANFIS called PSOPC–ANFIS. Their perf...
متن کاملGenetic algorithms in classifier fusion
An intense research around classifier fusion in recent years revealed that combining performance strongly depends on careful selection of classifiers to be combined. Classifier performance depends, in turn, on careful selection of features, which could be further restricted by the subspaces of the data domain. On the other hand, there is already a number of classifier fusion techniques availabl...
