The current study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of using Support Vector Machine (SVM) for political affiliation classification. The system was designed to analyze the political tweets collected from Twitter and classify them as positive, negative, and neutral. The performance analysis of the SVM classifier was based on the calculation of metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and f1-score. The results showed that the classifier had high accuracy and f1-score, indicating its effectiveness in classifying the political tweets. The implementation of SVM in this study is based on the principle of Structural Risk Minimization (SRM), which endeavors to identify the maximum margin hyperplane between two classes of data. The results indicate that SVM can be a reliable classification approach for the analysis of political affiliations, possessing the capability to accurately categorize both linear and non-linear information using linear, polynomial or radial basis kernels. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of using SVM for political affiliation analysis and highlights the importance of using accurate classification methods in the field of political analysis.

Brain computer interfaces (BCI) usually have focused on classifying the explicitly-expressed intentions of humans. In contrast, implicit intentions should be considered to develop more intelligent systems. However, classifying implicit intention is more difficult than explicit intentions, and the difficulty severely increases for subject independent classification. In this paper, we address the subject independent classification of implicit intention based on electroencephalography (EEG) signals. Among many machine learning models, we use the support vector machine (SVM) with radial basis kernel functions to classify the EEG signals. The Fisher scores are evaluated after extracting the gamma, beta, alpha and theta band powers of the EEG signals from thirty electrodes. Since a more discriminant feature has a larger Fisher score value, the band powers of the EEG signals are presented to SVM based on the Fisher score. By training the SVM with 1-out of-9 validation, the best classification accuracy is approximately 65% with gamma and theta components.

In order to better perform thermal hydraulic calculation and analysis of supercritical water reactor, based on the experimental data of supercritical water, the model training and predictive analysis of the heat transfer coefficient of supercritical water were carried out by using the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm. The changes in the prediction accuracy of the supercritical water heat transfer coefficient are analyzed by the changes of the regularization penalty parameter C, the slack variable epsilon and the Gaussian kernel function parameter gamma. The predicted value of the SVM model obtained after parameter optimization and the actual experimental test data are analyzed for data verification. The research results show that: the normalization of the data has a great influence on the prediction results. The slack variable has a relatively small influence on the accuracy change range of the predicted heat transfer coefficient. The change of gamma has the greatest impact on the accuracy of the heat transfer coefficient. Compared with the calculation results of traditional empirical formula methods, the trained algorithm model using SVM has smaller average error and standard deviations. Using the SVM trained algorithm model, the heat transfer coefficient of supercritical water can be effectively predicted and analyzed.

The estimation of the remaining useful life (RUL) of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries is important for intelligent battery management system (BMS). Data mining technology is becoming increasingly mature, and the RUL estimation of Li-ion batteries based on data-driven prognostics is more accurate with the arrival of the era of big data. However, the support vector machine (SVM), which is applied to predict the RUL of Li-ion batteries, uses the traditional single-radial basis kernel function. This type of classifier has weak generalization ability, and it easily shows the problem of data migration, which results in inaccurate prediction of the RUL of Li-ion batteries. In this study, a novel multi-kernel SVM (MSVM) based on polynomial kernel and radial basis kernel function is proposed. Moreover, the particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to search the kernel parameters, penalty factor, and weight coefficient of the MSVM model. Finally, this paper utilizes the NASA battery dataset to form the observed data sequence for regression prediction. Results show that the improved algorithm not only has better prediction accuracy and stronger generalization ability but also decreases training time and computational complexity.

평가지표와 같은 수치형 자료의 경우 수치 형태보다 엑셀(Excel)의 방사형 차트 형태로 나타내 시각적으로 표현하면 정보 전달에 더욱 효과적일 것이다. 그러나 개체가 많은 경우 시각적으로 판별하거나 분류하는 것이 쉽지 않다. 이럴 경우 각 개체에 대해 방사형 차트를 이용하여 형상화 시킨 후, 형상의 정보를 대표할 수 있는 형상점을 찾고 형상좌표로 변환해 형상분석을 적용하여 분류 및 판별하는 방법을 알아보고자 한다. 형상분석을 이용하기 위해 주로 분석자의 주관으로 형상점을 얻고 임의의 좌표공간을 생성시켜 좌표를 얻곤 했다. 방사형 차트는 해당 개체의 특징을 나타내는 변수의 개수만큼 형상점이 생기게 되고 이를 선으로 이은 것은 하나의 형상으로 여겨진다. 따라서 중심을 원점으로 두고 2차원 공간으로 정의를 내린 후, X축과 각 특징을 나타내는 축이 이루는 각에 대해 삼각함수를 적용해 형상좌표를 추출해낸다. 변수의 개수가 많아 형상의 모양이 복잡해질 경우 방사형 차트를 이용해 시각화하더라도 쉽게 파악하기 어렵다. 독립성을 보장할 수 없는 변수들에 대해 주성분 분석(PCA)을 실시하여 시각적으로 효과적인 형상을 만든다. PCA를 실시하기 전과 후의 형상에 대해 전통적 판별분석, 서포트벡터머신(support vector machine; SVM), 인공신경망(artificial neural network; ANN)의 기법을 적용시켜 분류표와 분류율을 확인한다. 또한 GPA (generalized procrustes analysis) 적합좌표, 북스테인좌표 2가지 좌표에 대한 판별의 차이를 비교한다. 북스테인좌표의 경우 기저 형상점을 중심으로 형상의 위치와 회전, 척도를 변환한 좌표로써, 분류율에 대해 GPA 형상좌표보다 더 높은 결과를 보이고 있다. 북스테인좌표의 경우 여러 군집 간의 형상을 비교하는데 유용하게 활용된다.

Purpose: To prevent low bone mineral density (BMD), that is, osteoporosis, in postmenopausal women, it is essential to diagnose osteoporosis more precisely. This study presented an automatic approach utilizing a histogram-based automatic clustering (HAC) algorithm with a support vector machine (SVM) to analyse dental panoramic radiographs (DPRs) and thus improve diagnostic accuracy by identifying postmenopausal women with low BMD or osteoporosis. Materials and Methods: We integrated our newly-proposed histogram-based automatic clustering (HAC) algorithm with our previously-designed computer-aided diagnosis system. The extracted moment-based features (mean, variance, skewness, and kurtosis) of the mandibular cortical width for the radial basis function (RBF) SVM classifier were employed. We also compared the diagnostic efficacy of the SVM model with the back propagation (BP) neural network model. In this study, DPRs and BMD measurements of 100 postmenopausal women patients (aged >50 years), with no previous record of osteoporosis, were randomly selected for inclusion. Results: The accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of the BMD measurements using our HAC-SVM model to identify women with low BMD were 93.0% (88.0%-98.0%), 95.8% (91.9%-99.7%) and 86.6% (79.9%-93.3%), respectively, at the lumbar spine; and 89.0% (82.9%-95.1%), 96.0% (92.2%-99.8%) and 84.0% (76.8%-91.2%), respectively, at the femoral neck. Conclusion: Our experimental results predict that the proposed HAC-SVM model combination applied on DPRs could be useful to assist dentists in early diagnosis and help to reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with low BMD and osteoporosis.

We propose classification algorithms for human and dog movement. The proposed algorithms use micro-Doppler signals obtained from humans and dogs moving in four different directions. A two-stage classifier based on a support vector machine (SVM) is proposed, which uses a radial-based function (RBF) kernel and $16^{th}$-order linear predictive code (LPC) coefficients as feature vectors. With the proposed algorithms, we obtain the best classification results when a first-level SVM classifies the type of movement, and then, a second-level SVM classifies the moving object. We obtain the correct classification probability 95.54% of the time, on average. Next, to deal with the difficult classification problem of human and dog running, we propose a two-layer convolutional neural network (CNN). The proposed CNN is composed of six ($6{\times}6$) convolution filters at the first and second layers, with ($5{\times}5$) max pooling for the first layer and ($2{\times}2$) max pooling for the second layer. The proposed CNN-based classifier adopts an auto regressive spectrogram as the feature image obtained from the $16^{th}$-order LPC vectors for a specific time duration. The proposed CNN exhibits 100% classification accuracy and outperforms the SVM-based classifier. These results show that the proposed classifiers can be used for human and dog classification systems and also for classification problems using data obtained from an ultra-wideband (UWB) sensor.

The recognition of human emotional state is one of the most important components for efficient human-human and human- computer interaction. In this paper, four emotions such as fear, disgust, joy, and neutral was a main problem of classifying emotion recognition and an approach of visual-stimuli for eliciting emotion based on physiological signals of skin conductance (SC), skin temperature (SKT), and blood volume pulse (BVP) was used to design the experiment. In order to reach the goal of solving this problem, half-against-half (HAH) multi-class support vector machine (SVM) with Gaussian radial basis function (RBF) kernel was proposed showing the effective techniques to improve the accuracy rate of emotion classification. The experimental results proved that the proposed was an efficient method for solving the emotion recognition problems with the accuracy rate of 90% of neutral, 86.67% of joy, 85% of disgust, and 80% of fear.

심음은 심장이 수축, 확장 시에 심장의 움직임과 혈류의 흐름에 의해 발생하는 음향이다. 심음은 여러 신호원으로 이루어져 있고, 매우 복잡하고 비고정적인 신호이다. 심장의 질환에 따라 심음의 소리는 다르게 나타난다. 심음을 구분하여 심장 질환의 유무를 판단하는 가장 기초적인 기준이 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 Support Vector Machine 기법을 이용하여 심음을 통한 심장 질환 판별 검출 알고리즘을 제안하였다. Support Vector Machine은 신경망의 한 종류이며 이진분류에서 좋은 성능을 보인다. 또한 Polynomial Radial Basis Function, Multi-Layer Perceptron Classifiers를 위한 대안적인 학습방법으로 사용된다. 이러한 특성을 사용하여 심음의 데이터들을 일정한 기준에 의하여 (+)데이터와 (-)데이터로 분리한 후, 각 데이터들을 학습시켜 최적의 데이터를 만든다. 이후 각 데이터들은 점층적인 추가 학습을 시킴으로써 적은 양의 학습 데이터만으로도 높은 분류 성능을 표현할 수 있다. 이 연구에서 제안된 SVM을 실제 심음 데이터에 적용한 실험에서 심장 질환의 유무 판별에 우수한 성능을 보임을 확인할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
