Polyhedral Conic Kernel-Like Functions For Svms, Gürkan Öztürk, Emre Çi̇men Jan 2019

Polyhedral Conic Kernel-Like Functions For Svms, Gürkan Öztürk, Emre Çi̇men

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this study, we propose a new approach that can be used as a kernel-like function for support vector machines (SVMs) in order to get nonlinear classification surfaces. We combined polyhedral conic functions (PCFs) with the SVM method. To get nonlinear classification surfaces, kernel functions are used with SVMs. However, the parameter selection of the kernel function affects the classification accuracy. Generally, in order to get successful classifiers which can predict unknown data accurately, best parameters are explored with the grid search method which is computationally expensive. We solved this problem with the proposed method. There is no need to …


Classification Of The Likelihood Of Colon Cancer With Machine Learning Techniques Using Ftir Signals Obtained From Plasma, Suat Toraman, Mustafa Gi̇rgi̇n, Bi̇lal Üstündağ, İbrahi̇m Türkoğlu Jan 2019

Classification Of The Likelihood Of Colon Cancer With Machine Learning Techniques Using Ftir Signals Obtained From Plasma, Suat Toraman, Mustafa Gi̇rgi̇n, Bi̇lal Üstündağ, İbrahi̇m Türkoğlu

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Colon cancer is one of the major causes of human mortality worldwide and the same can be said for Turkey. Various methods are used for the determination of cancer. One of these methods is Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, which has the ability to reveal biochemical changes. The most common features used to distinguish patients with cancer and healthy subjects are peak densities, peak height ratios, and peak area ratios. The greatest challenge of studies conducted to distinguish cancer patients from healthy subjects using FTIR signals is that the signals of cancer patients and healthy subjects are similar. In the …
