چکیده

This paper introduces a new classifier based on the multi-class probit regressiton model for interval symbolic data. Each pattern of the learning set is described by a vector o features. Each feature is represented by an interval. Two versions of this classifier are considered. The first version fits a multi-class probit regression model conjointly on the lower and upper bounds of the interval values assumed by the variables in the learning set. The second version fits a multi-class probit model on the lower and upper bounds of the intervals separately. Allocation of new examples is accomplished by computing the posterior probabilities for each class. To show the usefulness of this method, experiments are made on two synthetic symbolic data sets, both with different degrees of orverlapping classes. The assessment of the proposed classification method is based on estimation of average behavior of error rate.

Multi-class Semi-supervised Learning with the e-truncated Multinomial Probit Gaussian Process

Recently, the null category noise model has been proposed as a simple and elegant solution to the problem of incorporating unlabeled data into a Gaussian process (GP) classification model. In this paper, we show how this binary likelihood model can be generalised to the multi-class setting through the use of the multinomial probit GP classifier. We present a Gibbs sampling scheme for sampling t...

Discrete Choice Models Based on the Scale Mixture of Multivariate Normal Distributions

A rich class of parametric models is proposed for discrete choice data based on the scale mixture of multivariate normal distributions. The multinomial probit model is a special case in the class. The new models can be implemented in a Bayesian framework without much difficulty because of their special connections to the multinomial probit model. A Gibbs sampler with data augmentation is used t...
