چکیده

Classifier combination methods have proved to be an effective tool to increase the performance of pattern recognition applications. In this chapter we review and categorize major advancements in this field. Despite a significant number of publications describing successful classifier combination implementations, the theoretical basis is still missing and achieved improvements are inconsistent. By introducing different categories of classifier combinations in this review we attempt to put forward more specific directions for future theoretical research. We also introduce a retraining effect and effects of locality based training as important properties of classifier combinations. Such effects have significant influence on the performance of combinations, and their study is necessary for complete theoretical understanding of combination algorithms.

Automatic Sleep Stages Detection Based on EEG Signals Using Combination of Classifiers

Sleep stages classification is one of the most important methods for diagnosis in psychiatry and neurology. In this paper, a combination of three kinds of classifiers are proposed which classify the EEG signal into five sleep stages including Awake, N-REM (non-rapid eye movement) stage 1, N-REM stage 2, N-REM stage 3 and 4 (also called Slow Wave Sleep), and REM. Twenty-five all night recordings...

Voltage Sag Compensation with DVR in Power Distribution System Based on Improved Cuckoo Search Tree-Fuzzy Rule Based Classifier Algorithm

A new technique presents to improve the performance of dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) for voltage sag mitigation. This control scheme is based on cuckoo search algorithm with tree fuzzy rule based classifier (CSA-TFRC). CSA is used for optimizing the output of TFRC so the classification output of the network is enhanced. While, the combination of cuckoo search algorithm, fuzzy and decision tree...

Combining Multiple Pairwise Neural Networks Classifiers: A Comparative Study

Classifier combination constitutes an interesting approach when solving multiclass classification problems. We review standard methods used to decode the decomposition generated by a one-against-one approach. New decoding methods are proposed and are compared to standard methods. A stacking decoding is also proposed and consists in replacing the whole decoding by a trainable classifier to arbit...
