In this letter, we evaluate the classification performance of mixed numeric and categorical data for comparing the efficiency of feature filtering and feature wrapping. Because the mixed data is composed of numeric and categorical features, the feature selection method was applied to data set after discretizing the numeric features in the given data set. In this study, we choose the feature subset for improving the classification performance of the data set after preprocessing. The experimental result of comparing the classification performance show that the feature wrapping method is more reliable than feature filtering method in the aspect of classification accuracy.

Selection of training set influences the classification accuracy in supervised classification using satellite imagery. Generally, if pure pixels which character of training set is clear were selected, whole accuracy is high while if mixed pixels were selected, accuracy is decreased because of low-resolution imagery or unclear distinguishment. However, it is too difficult to choose the pure pixels as training set actually. Accordingly, this study should be suggested the suitable classification method in case of mixed pixels choice. To achieve this, a few pure pixels were chosen as training set and classification accuracy was calculated which was compared with classification result using an equal number of mixed pixels. As a result, accuracy of SVM was the highest among the classification method using mixed pixels and it was a relatively small difference with the result of classification using pure pixels. Therefore, imagery classification using SVM is most suitable in the mixed area of construction and green because it is high possibility to choose mixed pixels as training set.

This paper proposes a hybrid genetic algorithm(HGA) for the classifier ensemble selection. HGA is added a local search operation for increasing the fine-turning of local area. This paper apply hybrid and simple genetic algorithms(SGA) to the classifier ensemble selection problem in order to show the superiority of HGA. And this paper propose two methods(SSO: Sequential Search Operations, CSO: Combinational Search Operations) of local search operation of hybrid genetic algorithm. Experimental results show that the HGA has better searching capability than SGA. The experiments show that the CSO considering the correlation among classifiers is better than the SSO.

Pattern recognition using ensemble classifiers is composed of strong classifier which consists of many weak classifiers. In this paper, we used feature extraction to organize strong classifier using static camera sequence. The strong classifier is made of weak classifiers which considers environmental factors. So the strong classifier overcomes environmental effect. Proposed method uses binary foreground image by frame difference method and the boosting is used to train crowdedness model and recognize crowdedness using features. Combination of weak classifiers makes strong ensemble classifier. The classifier could make use of potential features from the environment such as shadow and reflection. We tested the proposed system with road sequence and subway platform sequence which are included in "AVSS 2007" sequence. The result shows good accuracy and efficiency on complex environment.

For a data with the assumption of the mixture distribution, it is important to find an appropriate threshold and evaluate its performance. The relationship is found of well-known nine classification accuracy measures such as MVD, Youden's index, the closest-to-(0, 1) criterion, the amended closest-to-(0, 1) criterion, SSS, symmetry point, accuracy area, TA, TR. Then some conditions of these measures are categorized into seven groups. Under the normal mixture assumption, we calculate thresholds based on these measures and obtain the corresponding type I and II errors. We could explore that which classification measure has minimum type I and II errors for estimated mixture distribution to understand the strength and weakness of these classification measures.

To achieve more accurate information from satellite image data, a research on a technique for mixed pixel ex-traction has been produced. The mixed pixels with only two land covers have been experimented. By analyzing canonical vector in canonical correlation classification, the mixed pixels have been classified. The ratio of the two canonical weighted values-the elements of canonical vector have been used as a threshold to discriminate mixed pixels. In case of the classification for the mixed pixels of bridge and water class in TM data before or after the 1st of September, the threshold for the optimal classification of the mixed pixels is 4.0. That is, if the ratio of the two canonical weighted values is less than 4.0, the pixel is a mixed pixel. Also, using the distribution of canonical weighted values, the constitution percentages of land covers within one mixed pixel can be approximately deducted. The accuracy of mixed pixel extraction for experimental area is 90％ and quite acceptable. Conclusively, a technique for mixed pixel extraction by canonical vector analysis is effective.

강우-유출 모델링에 있어 토지피복/이용 상태는 중요한 입력변수로 사용되지만 기존의 다중분광영상을 이용한 분류에는 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 위성탑재 초분광영상인 Hyperion 영상의 분광혼합분석을 통해 도시지역의 수문학적 토지피복/이용 분류를 실시하였으며 분류등급의 기준은 널리 사용되고 있는 SCS 토지피복/이용 등급을 이용하였다. 정확도분석을 위해 항공사진을 디지타이징하여 불투수면적의 비율을 비교하였으며 분광혼합분석 결과와 항공사진에서 불투수면적의 비율은 유사하게 나타났다. 그러나 SCS의 분류등급은 미국을 기준으로 개발되었기 때문에 임계치를 이용하여 분류된 등급과 실제 항공사진판독의 결과가 일부 다르게 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Fractional values resulted from the spectral mixture analysis could be used to classify not only urban area with various materials but also forest area in more detailed spatial scale. Especially South Korea is largely consist of mixed forest, so the spectral mixture analysis is suitable as a classification method. For the successful classification using spectral mixture analysis, extraction of optimal endmembers is prerequisite process. Though geometric endmember selection has been widely used, it is barely suitable for forest area. Therefore, in this study, we modified Iterative Error Analysis (IEA), one of the most famous algorithms of image endmember selection which extracts pure pixel directly from the image. The endmembers which represent deciduous and coniferous trees are automatically extracted. The experiments were implemented on two sites of Compact Airborne Spectrographic Imager (CASI) and classified forest area into two types. Accuracies of each classification results were 86% and 90%, which mean proposed algorithm effectively extracted proper endmembers. For the more accurate classification, another substances like forest gap should be considered.

In order to estimate an appropriate threshold and evaluate its performance for the data mixed with two different distributions, nine kinds of well-known classification accuracy measures such as MVD, Youden's index, the closest-to- (0,1) criterion, the amended closest-to- (0,1) criterion, SSS, symmetry point, accuracy area, TA, TR are clustered into five categories on the basis of their characters. In credit evaluation study, it is assumed that the score random variable follows normal mixture distributions of the default and non-default states. For various normal mixtures, optimal cut-off points for classification measures belong to each category are obtained and type I and II error rates corresponding to these cut-off points are calculated. Then we explore the cases when these error rates are minimized. If normal mixtures might be estimated for these kinds of real data, we could make use of results of this study to select the best classification accuracy measure which has the minimum error rate.

A problem of separating signals from noises is considered, when they are randomly mixed in the observation. It is assumed that the noise follows a Gaussian distribution and the signal follows a Gamma distribution, thus the underlying distribution of an observation will be a mixture of Gaussian and Gamma distributions. The parameters of the mixture model will be estimated from the EM algorithm. Then the signals and noises will be classified by a fixed threshold approach based on multiple testing using positive false discovery rate and Bayes error. The proposed method is applied to a real optical emission spectroscopy data for the quantitative analysis of inclusions. A simulation is carried out to compare the performance with the existing method using 3 sigma rule.
