Abstract
Recently, support vector machine has been widely used in various application fields due to its superiority of classification performance comparing with decision tree and neural network. Since support vector machine is basically designed for the binary classification problem, output coding method to analyze the classification result of multiclass binary classifier is used for the application of support vector machine into the multiclass problem. However, previous feature selection method for output coding based support vector machine found the features to improve the overall classification accuracy instead of improving each classification accuracy of each classifier. In this paper, we propose the novel feature selection method to find the features for maximizing the classification accuracy of each binary classifier in output coding based support vector machine. Experimental result showed that proposed method significantly improved the classification accuracy comparing with previous feature selection method.
