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 …


Effective Plant Discrimination Based On The Combination Of Local Binary Pattern Operators And Multiclass Support Vector Machine Methods, Vi N T Le, Beniamin Apopei, Kamal Alameh Jan 2019

Effective Plant Discrimination Based On The Combination Of Local Binary Pattern Operators And Multiclass Support Vector Machine Methods, Vi N T Le, Beniamin Apopei, Kamal Alameh

Research outputs 2014 to 2021

Accurate crop and weed discrimination plays a critical role in addressing the challenges of weed management in agriculture. The use of herbicides is currently the most common approach to weed control. However, herbicide resistant plants have long been recognised as a major concern due to the excessive use of herbicides. Effective weed detection techniques can reduce the cost of weed management and improve crop quality and yield. A computationally efficient and robust plant classification algorithm is developed and applied to the classification of three crops: Brassica napus (canola), Zea mays (maize/corn), and radish. The developed algorithm is based on the …


Deep Neural Network Learning-Based Classifier Design For Big-Data Analytics, Krishnan Raghavan Jan 2019

Deep Neural Network Learning-Based Classifier Design For Big-Data Analytics, Krishnan Raghavan

Doctoral Dissertations

"In this digital age, big-data sets are commonly found in the field of healthcare, manufacturing and others where sustainable analysis is necessary to create useful information. Big-data sets are often characterized by high-dimensionality and massive sample size. High dimensionality refers to the presence of unwanted dimensions in the data where challenges such as noise, spurious correlation and incidental endogeneity are observed. Massive sample size, on the other hand, introduces the problem of heterogeneity because complex and unstructured data types must analyzed. To mitigate the impact of these challenges while considering the application of classification, a two step analysis approach is …


An Improved Tree Model Based On Ensemble Feature Selection For Classification, Chandralekha M, Shenbagavadivu N Jan 2019

An Improved Tree Model Based On Ensemble Feature Selection For Classification, Chandralekha M, Shenbagavadivu N

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Researchers train and build specific models to classify the presence and absence of a disease and the accuracy of such classification models is continuously improved. The process of building a model and training depends on the medical data utilized. Various machine learning techniques and tools are used to handle different data with respect to disease types and their clinical conditions. Classification is the most widely used technique to classify disease and the accuracy of the classifier largely depends on the attributes. The choice of the attribute largely affects the diagnosis and performance of the classifier. Due to growing large volumes …


Word Sense Disambiguation Using Semantic Kernels With Class-Based Term Values, Ayşe Berna Altinel, Murat Can Gani̇z, Bi̇lge Şi̇pal, Eren Can Erkaya, Onur Can Yücedağ, Muhammed Ali̇ Doğan Jan 2019

Word Sense Disambiguation Using Semantic Kernels With Class-Based Term Values, Ayşe Berna Altinel, Murat Can Gani̇z, Bi̇lge Şi̇pal, Eren Can Erkaya, Onur Can Yücedağ, Muhammed Ali̇ Doğan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this study, we propose several semantic kernels for word sense disambiguation (WSD). Our approaches adapt the intuition that class-based term values help in resolving ambiguity of polysemous words in WSD. We evaluate our proposed approaches with experiments, utilizing various sizes of training sets of disambiguated corpora (SensEval). With these experiments we try to answer the following questions: 1.) Do our semantic kernel formulations yield higher classification performance than traditional linear kernel?, 2.) Under which conditions a kernel design performs better than others?, 3.) Does the addition of class labels into standard term-document matrix improve the classification accuracy?, 4.) Is …


Extracting Accent Information From Urdu Speech For Forensic Speaker Recognition, Falak Tahir, Sajid Saleem, Ayaz Ahmad Jan 2019

Extracting Accent Information From Urdu Speech For Forensic Speaker Recognition, Falak Tahir, Sajid Saleem, Ayaz Ahmad

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper presents a new method for extraction of accent information from Urdu speech signals. Accent is used in speaker recognition system especially in forensic cases and plays a vital role in discriminating people of different groups, communities and origins due to their different speaking styles. The proposed method is based on Gaussian mixture model-universal background model (GMM-UBM), mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC), and a data augmentation (DA) process. The DA process appends features to base MFCC features and improves the accent extraction and forensic speaker recognition performances of GMM-UBM. Experiments are performed on an Urdu forensic speaker corpus. The experimental …
