For effective mobility control of UGV(unmanned ground vehicle), the terrain cover classification is an important component as well as terrain geometry recognition and obstacle detection. The vision based terrain cover classification algorithm consists of pre-processing, feature extraction, classification and post-processing. In this paper, we present a method to classify terrain covers based on the color and texture information. The color space conversion is performed for the pre-processing, the wavelet transform is applied for feature extraction, and the SVM(support vector machine) is applied for the classifier. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has a promising classification performance.

In this paper we propose effective speech recognizer through two recognition experiments. In general, SVM is classification method which classify two class set by finding voluntary nonlinear boundary in vector space and possesses high classification performance under few training data number. In this paper we compare recognition performance of HMM and SVM at training data number and investigate recognition performance of each feature parameter while changing feature space of MFCC using Independent Component Analysis(ICA) and Principal Component Analysis(PCA). As a result of experiment, recognition performance of SVM is better than 1:.um under few training data number, and feature parameter by ICA showed the highest recognition performance because of superior linear classification.

Recently, pre-trained convolutional neural network CNNs have been widely used and applied for medical image classification. These models can utilised in three different ways, for feature extraction, to use the architecture of the pre-trained model and to train some layers while freezing others. In this study, the ResNet18 pre-trained CNNs model is used for feature extraction, followed by the support vector machine for multiple classes to classify medical images from multi-classes, which is used as the main classifier. Our proposed classification method was implemented on Kvasir and PH2 medical image datasets. The overall accuracy was 93.38% and 91.67% for Kvasir and PH2 datasets, respectively. The classification results and performance of our proposed method outperformed some of the related similar methods in this area of study.

In this paper, feature vector extraction methods and classification algorithms for the automatic classification of transient signals in underwater are discussed. A feature vector extraction method using wavelet transform, which shows good performance with small number of coefficients, is proposed and compared with the existing classical methods. For the automatic classification, artificial neural networks such as multilayer perceptron (MLP), radial basis function (RBF), and MLP-Class are utilized, where those neural networks as well as extracted feature vectors are combined to improve the performance and reliability of the proposed algorithm. It is confirmed by computer simulation with Traco's standard transient data set I and simulated data that the proposed feature vector extraction method and classification algorithm perform well, assuming that the energy of a given transient signal is sufficiently larger than that of a ambient noise, that there are the finite number of noise sources, and that there does not exist noise sources more than two simultaneously.

Identifying disease genes from human genome is a critical task in biomedical research. Important biological features to distinguish the disease genes from the non-disease genes have been mainly selected based on traditional feature selection approaches. However, the traditional feature selection approaches unnecessarily consider many unimportant biological features. As a result, although some of the existing classification techniques have been applied to disease gene identification, the prediction performance was not satisfactory. A small set of the most important biological features can enhance the accuracy of disease gene identification, as well as provide potentially useful knowledge for biologists or clinicians, who can further investigate the selected biological features as well as the potential disease genes. In this paper, we propose a new stepwise random forests (SRF) approach for biological feature selection and disease gene identification. The SRF approach consists of two stages. In the first stage, only important biological features are iteratively selected in a forward selection manner based on one-dimensional random forest regression, where the updated residual vector is considered as the current response vector. We can then determine a small set of important biological features. In the second stage, random forests classification with regard to the selected biological features is applied to identify disease genes. Our extensive experiments show that the proposed SRF approach outperforms the existing feature selection and classification techniques in terms of biological feature selection and disease gene identification.

An advanced form of Multistage Feature-based Classification Model(AMFCM), called AMFCM, is proposed in this paper. AMFCM like MFCM does not use the concatenated form of available feature vectors extracted from original data to classify each data, but uses only groups related to each feature vector to classify separately. The prpposed AMFCM improves the contribution rate used in MFCM and proposes a confusion table for each local classifier using a specific feature vector group. The confusion table for each local classifier contains accuracy information of each local classifier on each class of data. The proposed AMFCM is applied to the problem of music genre classification on a set of music data. The results demonstrate that the proposed AMFCM outperforms MFCM by 8% - 15% on average in terms of classification accuracy depending on the grouping algorithms used for local classifiers and the number of clusters.

This paper describes a procedure extracting feature vector of a target cell more precisely in the case of identifying specified cell. The classification of object type is based on feature vector such as area, complexity, centroid, rotation angle, effective diameter, perimeter, width and height of the object So, the feature vector plays very important role in classifying objects. Because the feature vectors is affected by noises and holes, it is necessary to remove noises contaminated in original image to get feature vector extraction exactly. In this paper, we propose the following method to do to get feature vector extraction exactly. First, by Otsu's optimal threshold selection method and morphological filters such as cleaning, filling and opening filters, we separate objects from background an get rid of isolated particles. After the labeling step by 4-adjacent neighborhood, the labeled image is filtered by the area filter. From this area-filtered image, feature vector such as area, complexity, centroid, rotation angle, effective diameter, the perimeter based on chain code and the width and height based on rotation matrix are extracted. To prove the effectiveness, the proposed method is applied for yeast Zygosaccharomyces rouxn. It is also shown that the experimental results from the proposed method is more efficient in measuring feature vectors than from only Otsu's optimal threshold detection method.

In recent years, worldwide production of solar wafers increased rapidly. Therefore, the solar wafer technology in the developed countries already has become an industry, and related industries such as solar wafer manufacturing equipment have developed rapidly. In this paper we propose the color classification method of the polycrystalline solar wafer that needed in manufacturing equipment. The solar wafer produced in the manufacturing process does not have a uniform color. Therefore, the solar wafer panels made with insensitive color uniformity will fall off the aesthetics. Gaussian mixture models (GMM) are among the most statistically mature methods for clustering and we use the Gaussian mixture models for the classification of the polycrystalline solar wafers. In addition, we compare the performance of the color feature vector from various color space for color classification. Experimental results show that the feature vector from YCbCr color space has the most efficient performance and the correct classification rate is 97.4%.

In this paper, we propose a new approach for rotation invariant texture classification based on Gabor wavelet. Conventional methods have the low correct classification rate in large texture database. In our proposed method, we define two feature groups which are the global feature vector and the local feature matrix. The feature groups are output of Gabor wavelet filtering. By using the feature groups, we defined an improved discriminant and obtained high classification rates of large texture database in the experiments. From spectrum symmetry of texture images, the number of test times were reduced nearly 50%. Consequently, the correct classification rate is improved with $2.3%{\sim}15.6%$ values in 112 Brodatz texture class, which may vary according to comparison methods.
