Temporal Data Classification Using Linear Classifiers, Peter Revesz, Thomas Triplet Sep 2009

Temporal Data Classification Using Linear Classifiers, Peter Revesz, Thomas Triplet

CSE Conference and Workshop Papers

Data classification is usually based on measurements recorded at the same time. This paper considers temporal data classification where the input is a temporal database that describes measurements over a period of time in history while the predicted class is expected to occur in the future. We describe a new temporal classification method that improves the accuracy of standard classification methods. The benefits of the method are tested on weather forecasting using the meteorological database from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.


Classification And Cluster Analysis Of Complex Time-Of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry For Biological Samples, Stephen E. Reichenbach, Xue Tian, Qingping Tao, Alex Henderson Jan 2009

Classification And Cluster Analysis Of Complex Time-Of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry For Biological Samples, Stephen E. Reichenbach, Xue Tian, Qingping Tao, Alex Henderson

CSE Conference and Workshop Papers

Identifying and separating subtly different biological samples is one of the most critical tasks in biological analysis. Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) is becoming a popular and important technique in the analysis of biological samples, because it can detect molecular information and characterize chemical composition. ToF-SIMS spectra of biological samples are enormously complex with large mass ranges and many peaks. As a result the classification and cluster analysis are challenging. This study presents a new classification algorithm, the most similar neighbor with a probability-based spectrum similarity measure (MSN- PSSM), which uses all the information in the entire ToF- SIMS …
