Renal Cancer Cell Classification Using Generative Embeddings and Information Theoretic Kernels
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a hybrid generative/discriminative classification scheme and apply it to the detection of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) on tissue microarray (TMA) images. In particular we use probabilistic latent semantic analysis (pLSA) as a generative model to perform generative embedding onto the free energy score space (FESS). Subsequently, we use information theoretic kernels on these embeddings to build a kernel based classifier on the FESS. We compare our results with support vector machines based on standard linear kernels and RBF kernels; and with the nearest neighbor (NN) classifier based on the Mahalanobis distance using a diagonal covariance matrix. We conclude that the proposed hybrid approach achieves higher accuracy, revealing itself as a promising approach for this class of problems.

Combining information theoretic kernels with generative embeddings for classification
Classical approaches to learn classifiers for structured objects (e.g., images, sequences) use generative models in a standard Bayesian framework. To exploit the state-of-the-art performance of discriminative learning, while also taking advantage of generative models of the data, generative embeddings have been recently proposed as a way of building hybrid discriminative/generative approaches. ...
متن کاملGenerative Embeddings based on Rician Mixtures - Application to Kernel-based Discriminative Classification of Magnetic Resonance Images
Most approaches to classifier learning for structured objects (such as images or sequences) are based on probabilistic generative models. On the other hand, state-of-the-art classifiers for vectorial data are learned discriminatively. In recent years, these two dual paradigms have been combined via the use of generative embeddings (of which the Fisher kernel is arguably the best known example);...

متن کاملInformation Theoretical Kernels for Generative Embeddings Based on Hidden Markov Models
Many approaches to learning classifiers for structured objects (e.g., shapes) use generative models in a Bayesian framework. However, state-of-the-art classifiers for vectorial data (e.g., support vector machines) are learned discriminatively. A generative embedding is a mapping from the object space into a fixed dimensional feature space, induced by a generative model which is usually learned ...
