چکیده

The combination of classifiers has been proposed as a method to improve the accuracy achieved by a single classifier. In this study, the performances of optimistic and pessimistic ordered weighted averaging operators for protein secondary structure classifiers fusion have been investigated. Each secondary structure classifier outputs a unique structure for each input residue. We used confusion matrix of each secondary structure classifier as a general reusable pattern for converting this unique label to measurement level. The results of optimistic and pessimistic OWA operators have been compared with majority voting and five common classifiers used in the fusion process. Using a benchmark set from the EVA server, the results showed a significant improvement in the average Q3 prediction accuracy up to 1.69% toward the best classifier results.

Using classifier fusion techniques for protein secondary structure prediction

Classifier fusion techniques are gaining more popularity for their capability of improving the accuracy achieved by individual classifiers. A common approach is to combine the classifiers’ outcome using simple methods, such as majority voting. In this paper, we build a meta-classifier by fusing some already well-known classifiers for protein structure prediction. Each individual classifier outp...

Designing and analyzing the structure of Tat-BoNT/A(1-448) fusion protein: An in silico approach

Clostridium botulinum type A (BoNT/A) produces a neurotoxin recently found to be useful as an injectable drug for the treatment of abnormal muscle contractions. The catalytic domain of this toxin which is responsible for the main toxin activity is a zinc metalloprotease that inhibits the release of neurotransmitter mediators in neuromuscular junctions. A cell penetrating cationic peptide, Tat, ...

Building ensemble classifiers using belief functions and OWA operators

A pervasive task in many forms of human activity is classification. Recent interest in the classification process has focused on ensemble classifier systems. These types of systems are based on a paradigm of combining the outputs of a number of individual classifiers. In this paper we propose a new approach for obtaining the final output of ensemble classifiers. The method presented here uses t...
