Combining multiple classifiers to obtain improved performance over the individual classifier has been a widely used technique. The task of constructing a multiple classifier system(MCS) contains two different issues : how to generate a diverse set of base-level classifiers and how to combine their predictions. In this paper, we review the characteristics of the existing multiple classifier systems: bagging, boosting, and stacking. And then we propose new MCSs: stacked bagging, stacked boosting, bagged stacking, and boasted stacking. These MCSs are a sort of hybrid MCSs that combine advantageous characteristics of the existing ones. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed schemes, we conducted experiments with nine different real-world datasets from UCI KDD archive. The result of experiments showed the superiority of our hybrid MCSs, especially bagged stacking and boosted stacking, over the existing ones.

Automated text classification is considered as an important method to manage and process a huge amount of documents in digital forms that are widespread and continuously increasing. Recently, text classification has been addressed with machine learning technologies such as k-nearest neighbor, decision tree, support vector machine and neural networks. However, only few investigations in text classification are studied on real problems but on well-organized text corpus, and do not show their usefulness. This paper proposes and analyzes text classification methods for a real application, email document classification task. First, we propose a combining method of multiple neural networks that improves the performance through the combinations with maximum and neural networks. Second, we present another strategy of combining multiple machine learning classifiers. Voting, Borda count and neural networks improve the overall classification performance. Experimental results show the usefulness of the proposed methods for a real application domain, yielding more than 90% precision rates.

In machine learning, the ensemble classifier that is a set of classifiers have been introduced for higher accuracy than individual classifiers. We propose a new ensemble learning method that employs a set of region based classifiers. To show the performance of the proposed method. we compared its performance with that of bagging and boosting, which ard existing ensemble methods. Since the distribution of data can be different in different regions in the feature space, we split the data and generate classifiers based on each region and apply a weighted voting among the classifiers. We used 11 data sets from the UCI Machine Learning Repository to compare the performance of our new ensemble method with that of individual classifiers as well as existing ensemble methods such as bagging and boosting. As a result, we found that our method produced improved performance, particularly when the base learner is Naive Bayes or SVM.

Fingerprint classification reduces the number of matches required in automated fingerprint identification systems by categorizing fingerprints into a predefined class. Support vector machines (SVMs), widely used in pattern classification, have produced a high accuracy rate when performing fingerprint classification. In order to effectively apply SVMs to multi-class fingerprint classification systems, we propose a novel method in which SVMs are generated with the one-vs-all (OVA) scheme and dynamically ordered with $na{\ddot{i}}ve$ Bayes classifiers. More specifically, it uses representative fingerprint features such as the FingerCode, singularities and pseudo ridges to train the OVA SVMs and $na{\ddot{i}}ve$ Bayes classifiers. The proposed method has been validated on the NIST-4 database and produced a classification accuracy of 90.8% for 5-class classification. Especially, it has effectively managed tie problems usually occurred in applying OVA SVMs to multi-class classification.

In this paper, a dynamic variable window-based topographical classification method is proposed which has the changeable classification units depending on topographical properties. In the proposed scheme, to im prove the classification efficiency, the unit of topographical classification can be changeable dynamically according to the topographical properties and repeated patterns. Also, in this paper, the classification efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method are analyzed in order to find an optimal maximum decision window-size through the experiment. According to the experiment results, the proposed dynamic variable window-based topographical classification method maintains similar accuracy but remarkably reduce computing time than that of a fixed window-size based one, respectively.

The explosive increase in the use of email has made to need email classification efficiently and accurately. Current work on the email classification method have mainly been focused on a binary classification that filters out spam-mails. This methods are based on Support Vector Machines, Bayesian classifiers, rule-based classifiers. Such supervised methods, in the sense that the user is required to manually describe the rules and keyword list that is used to recognize the relevant email. Other unsupervised method using clustering techniques for the multi-category classification is created a category labels from a set of incoming messages. In this paper, we propose a new automatic email multi-category classification method using NMF for automatic category label construction method and dynamic category hierarchy method for the reorganization of email messages in the category labels. The proposed method in this paper, a large number of emails are managed efficiently by classifying multi-category email automatically, email messages in their category are reorganized for enhancing accuracy whenever users want to classify all their email messages.

The development of microarray technology has supplied a large volume of data to many fields. In particular, it has been applied to prediction and diagnosis of cancer, so that it expectedly helps us to exactly predict and diagnose cancer. It is essential to efficiently analyze DNA microarray data because the amount of DNA microarray data is usually very large. Since accurate classification of cancer is very important issue for treatment of cancer, it is desirable to make a decision by combining the results of various expert classifiers rather than by depending on the result of only one classifier. Generally combining classifiers gives high performance and high confidence. In spite of many advantages of ensemble classifiers, ensemble with mutually error-correlated classifiers has a limit in the performance. In this paper, we propose the ensemble of neural network classifiers learned from negatively correlated features using three benchmark datasets to precisely classify cancer, and systematically evaluate the performances of the proposed method. Experimental results show that the ensemble classifier with negatively correlated features produces the best recognition rate on the three benchmark datasets.

The paper proposes a meta-learning approach for building multi-classifier systems in a GA-based inductive learning environment. In our meta-learning approach, a classifier consists of a general classifier and a meta-classifier. We obtain a meta-classifier from classification results of its general classifier by applying a learning algorithm to them. The role of the meta-classifier is to evaluate the classification result of its general classifier and decide whether to participate into a final decision-making process or not. The classification system draws a decision by combining classification results that are evaluated as correct ones by meta-classifiers. We present empirical results that evaluate the effect of our meta-learning approach on the performance of multi-classifier systems.

Studies on classification of national roads have been continued, but there is little research on the classification of urban arterial roads. Due to the increase of traffic volume, urban arterial roads do not perform well as main roads. In this paper, the function of urban arterial road was established by using cluster analysis using traffic characteristics. Traffic characteristics such as traffic volume, weekend coefficient and speed coefficient were used to establish the functions of 55 main arterial roads in Seoul. The results of this paper are compared with those of the method using AADT. The method using AADT classifies the characteristics according to the traffic volume of the whole lane. In this paper, however, the results are derived using the traffic volume per lane reflecting the actual traffic volume. In addition, the functional classification of the arterial roads in Seoul was compared with the results of this paper to verify that the traffic characteristics were reflected. As a result, the method presented in this paper is more effective in showing traffic characteristics than the current highway functional classification method, and the functional classification system will be helpful for road extension and planning design.
