In this paper, we propose an approach which constructs classifier ensembles of various channel compensation and feature enhancement methods. CMN and CMVN are used as channel compensation methods. PCA, kernel PCA, greedy kernel PCA, and kernel multimodal discriminant analysis are used as feature enhancement methods. The proposed ensemble system is constructed with the combination of 15 classifiers which include three channel compensation methods (including 'without compensation') and five feature enhancement methods (including 'without enhancement'). Experimental results show that the proposed ensemble system gives highest average speaker identification rate in various environments (channels, noises, and sessions).

This paper addresses a problem of classifying human breast cancer into its subtypes. A main ingredient in our approach is kernel machines such as support vector machine (SVM). kernel principal component analysis (KPCA). and kernel partial least squares (KPLS). In the task of breast cancer classification, we employ both SVM and KPLS and compare their results. In addition to this classification. we also analyze the patterns of clinical outcomes in the feature space. In order to visualize the clinical outcomes in low-dimensional space, both KPCA and KPLS are used. It turns out that these methods are useful to identify correlations between clinical outcomes and the nonlinearly protected expression profiles in low-dimensional feature space.

Recently, subspace analysis has raised its performance to a higher level through the adoption of kernel-based nonlinearity. Especially, the radial basis function, based on its nonparametric nature, has shown promising results in face recognition. However, due to the endemic small sample size problem of face data, the conventional kernel-based feature extraction methods have difficulty in data representation. In this paper, we introduce a novel variant of the RBF kernel to alleviate this problem. By adopting the concept of the nearest feature line classifier, we show both effectiveness and generalizability of the proposed method, particularly regarding the small sample size issue.

Kernel principal component analysis(PCA) maps observations in nonlinear feature space to a reduced dimensional plane of principal components. We do not need to specify the feature space explicitly because the procedure uses the kernel trick. In this paper, we propose a graphical scheme to represent variables in the kernel principal component analysis. In addition, we propose an index for individual variables to measure the importance in the principal component plane.

This paper describes a novel spectral envelope conversion method based on Gaussian mixture model (GMM). The core of this paper is rearranging source feature vectors in input space to the transformed feature vectors in feature space for the better modeling of GMM of source and target features. The quality of statistical modeling is dependent on the distribution and the dimension of data. The proposed method transforms both of the distribution and dimension of data and gives us the chance to model the same data with different configuration. Because the converted feature vectors should be on the input space, only source feature vectors are rearranged in the feature space and target feature vectors remain unchanged for the joint pdf of source and target features using KPCA. The experimental result shows that the proposed method outperforms the conventional GMM-based conversion method in various training environment.

Local Feature Analysis(LFA)는 눈, 코, 턱 그리고 볼과 같은 얼굴의 지역적 특징을 잘 추출하는 것으로 알려져 있으나, 얼굴 인식에 이용하기에는 몇 가지 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 LFA의 문제점을 개선하여 인식에 적합한 새로운 얼굴 특징 추출 방법을 제안한다. 제안 방법은 kernel 생성, 선택 그리고 중첩의 3 단계로 이루어진다. 첫 번째 단계에서 얼굴의 지역적 특징을 검출할 수 있는 kernel물 생성하고, 두 번째 단계에서 인식에 적합한 kernel을 선택한다. 마지막으로 선택된 kernel을 중첩시켜 적은 개수의 조밀한 형태의 kernel로 재 표현한다. 실험을 통하여 제안 방법이 적은 개수의 특징을 이용하여 좋은 인식율을 보임을 확인하였다.

In a cloud environment, performance degradation, or even downtime, of virtual machines (VMs) usually appears gradually along with anomalous states of VMs. To better characterize the state of a VM, all possible performance metrics are collected. For such high-dimensional datasets, this article proposes a feature extraction algorithm based on unsupervised fuzzy linear discriminant analysis with kernel (UFKLDA). By introducing the kernel method, UFKLDA can not only effectively deal with non-Gaussian datasets but also implement nonlinear feature extraction. Two sets of experiments were undertaken. In discriminability experiments, this article introduces quantitative criteria to measure discriminability among all classes of samples. The results show that UFKLDA improves discriminability compared with other popular feature extraction algorithms. In detection accuracy experiments, this article computes accuracy measures of an anomaly detection algorithm (i.e., C-SVM) on the original performance metrics and extracted features. The results show that anomaly detection with features extracted by UFKLDA improves the accuracy of detection in terms of sensitivity and specificity.

In this paper, we propose a new affine shape adaptation scheme for the affine invariant feature detector, in which the convergence stability is still an opening problem. This paper examines the relation between the integration scale matrix of next iteration and the current second moment matrix and finds that the convergence stability of the method can be improved by adjusting the relation between the two matrices instead of keeping them always proportional as proposed by previous methods. By estimating and updating the shape of the integration kernel and differentiation kernel in each iteration based on the anisotropy of the current second moment matrix, we propose a coarse-to-fine affine shape adaptation scheme which is able to adjust the pace of convergence and enable the process to converge smoothly. The feature matching experiments demonstrate that the proposed approach obtains an improvement in convergence ratio and repeatability compared with the current schemes with relatively fixed integration kernel.

지지벡터기계는 잡음변수가 존재하는 경우에 성능이 저하될 수 있다. 또한 최종 분류기에서 각 변수들의 중요도를 알리 어려운 단점이 있다. 따라서 변수선택은 지지벡터기계의 해석력과 정확도를 높일 수 있다. 기존의 문헌상의 대부분의 연구는 선형 지지벡터기계에서 성근 해를 주는 벌점함수를 통해 변수를 선택에 관한 것이다. 실제로는 분류의 정확도를 높이기 위해 비선형 커널을 사용하는 경우가 일반적이다. 따라서 변수선택은 비선형 지지벡터기계에서도 마찬가지로 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 모의실험 및 실제자료를 통하여 비선형 지지벡터의 대표적인 변수선택법인 COSSO(component selection and smoothing operator)와 KNIFE(kernel iterative feature extraction)의 성능을 비교한다.
