Probability-Based Distance Function for Distance-Based Classifiers
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the paper a new measure of distance between events/observations in the pattern space is proposed and experimentally evaluated with the use of k-NN classifier in the context of binary classification problems. The application of the proposed approach visibly improves the results compared to the case of training without postulated enhancements in terms of speed and accuracy. Numerical results are very promising and outperform the reference literature results of k-NN classifiers built with other distance measures.

IRDDS: Instance reduction based on Distance-based decision surface
In instance-based learning, a training set is given to a classifier for classifying new instances. In practice, not all information in the training set is useful for classifiers. Therefore, it is convenient to discard irrelevant instances from the training set. This process is known as instance reduction, which is an important task for classifiers since through this process the time for classif...

The paper analyses issues leading to errors in graphic object classifiers. Thedistance measures suggested in literature and used as a basis in traditional, fuzzy, andNeuro-Fuzzy classifiers are found to be not suitable for classification of non-stylized orfuzzy objects in which the features of classes are much more difficult to recognize becauseof significant uncertainties in their location and...
متن کاملRobustified distance based fuzzy membership function for support vector machine classification
Fuzzification of support vector machine has been utilized to deal with outlier and noise problem. This importance is achieved, by the means of fuzzy membership function, which is generally built based on the distance of the points to the class centroid. The focus of this research is twofold. Firstly, by taking the advantage of robust statistics in the fuzzy SVM, more emphasis on reducing the im...

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new estimation method for estimating the Archimedean copula dependence parameter in the non-parametric setting. The estimation of the dependence parameter has been selected as the value that minimizes the Cramér-von-Mises distance which measures the distance between Empirical Bernstein Kendall distribution function and true Kendall distribution functi...
