We present a novel method for eye location by means of a two-level classifier scheme. Locating the eye by machine-inspection of an image or video is an important problem for Computer Vision and is of particular value to applications in biomedical imaging. Our method aims to overcome the significant challenge of an eye-location that is able to maintain high accuracy by disregarding highly variable changes in the environment. A first level of computational analysis processes this image context. This is followed by object detection by means of a two-class discrimination classifier(second algorithmic level).We have tested our eye location system using FERET and BioID database. We compare the performance of two-level classifier with that of non-level classifier, and found it's better performance.

In this paper, we propose a TSK-type fuzzy classifier using PCA(Principal Component Analysis), FCM(Fuzzy C-Means) clustering and hybrid GA(genetic algorithm). First, input data is transformed to reduce correlation among the data components by PCA. FCM clustering is applied to obtain a initial TSK-type fuzzy classifier. Parameter identification is performed by AGA(Adaptive Genetic Algorithm) and RLSE(Recursive Least Square Estimate). we applied the proposed method to Iris data classification problems and obtained a better performance than previous works.

In this paper, we propose efficient total recognition system of handwritten and printed numerals for enhancing the classification time. The proposed system consist two step neuroclassifier: Printed numerals classifier and Handwritten numerals classifier. The performance of the propose classifier was tested on 5000 handwritten numerals database of NIST and 100 printed numerals database. In case of handwritten classifier, the overall classification times were 11 second. And in case of proposed system, the overall classification times were reduced by...

In this paper, we proposed a new design methodology to improve the classification performance of the Nearest Prototype Classifier which is one of the simplest classification algorithm. To optimize the position vectors of the prototypes in the nearest prototype classifier, we use the differential evolutionary algorithm. The optimized position vectors of the prototypes result in the improvement of the classification performance. The new method to determine the class labels of the prototypes, which are defined by the differential evolutionary algorithm, is proposed. In addition, the experimental application covers a comparative analysis including several previously commonly encountered methods.

The method proposed in this paper can improve the performance of the Boosting algorithm in machine learning. The proposed Boundary AdaBoost algorithm can make up for the weak points of Normal binary classifier using threshold boundary concepts. The new proposed boundary can be located near the threshold of the binary classifier. The proposed algorithm improves classification in areas where Normal binary classifier is weak. Thus, the optimal boundary final classifier can decrease error rates classified with more reasonable features. Finally, this paper derives the new algorithm's optimal solution, and it demonstrates how classifier accuracy can be improved using the proposed Boundary AdaBoost in a simulation experiment of pedestrian detection using 10-fold cross validation.

Facial expression recognition is an important part in emotional interaction between human and machine. This paper proposes a facial expression recognition approach based on multi-classifier fusion with stacking algorithm. The kappa-error diagram is employed in base-level classifiers selection, which gains insights about which individual classifier has the better recognition performance and how diverse among them to help improve the recognition accuracy rate by fusing the complementary functions. In order to avoid the influence of the chance factor caused by guessing in algorithm evaluation and get more reliable awareness of algorithm performance, kappa and informedness besides accuracy are utilized as measure criteria in the comparison experiments. To verify the effectiveness of our approach, two public databases are used in the experiments. The experiment results show that compared with individual classifier and two other typical ensemble methods, our proposed stacked ensemble system does recognize facial expression more accurately with less standard deviation. It overcomes the individual classifier's bias and achieves more reliable recognition results.

This paper presents a new design algorithm for the combination with the fuzzy classifier and the Bayesian classifier. Only few attempts have so far been made at providing an effective design algorithm combining the advantages and removing the disadvantages of two classifiers. Specifically, the suggested algorithms are composed of three steps: the combining, the fuzzy-set-based pruning, and the fuzzy set tuning. In the combining, the multi-inputs and multi-outputs (MIMO) fuzzy model is used to combine two classifiers. In the fuzzy-set-based pruning, to effectively decrease the complexity of the fuzzy-Bayesian classifier and the risk of the overfitting, the analysis method of the fuzzy set and the recursive pruning method are proposesd. In the fuzzy set tuning for the misclassified feature vectors, the premise parameters are adjusted by using the gradient decent algorithm. Finally, to show the feasibility and the validity of the proposed algorithm, a computer simulation is provided.

A Classifier System processes a discrete coded information from the environment. When the system codes the information to discontinuous data, it loses excessively the information of the environment. The Fuzzy Classifier System(FCS) makes the classifier system be able to carry out the mapping from continuous inputs to outputs. It is the FCS that applies this ability of the machine learning to the concept of fuzzy controller. It is that the antecedent and consequent of classifier is same as a fuzzy rule of the rule base. In this paper, the FCS is the Michigan style and fuzzifies the input values to create the messages. The system stores those messages in the message list and uses the implicit Bucket Brigade Algorithms. Also the FCS employs the Genetic Algorithms(GAs) to make new rules and modify rules when performance of the system needs to be improved. We will verify the effectiveness of the proposed FCS by applying it to AMR avoiding the obstacle.
