چکیده

An overview is provided of recent developments in the use of latent class (LC) and other types of %nite mixture models for classi%cation purposes. Several extensions of existing models are presented. Two basic types of LC models for classi%cation are de%ned: supervised and unsupervised structures. Their most important special cases are presented and illustrated with an empirical example. c © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

شناسایی نوع و مدل وسیله نقلیه با استفاده از مجموعه بخش‌های متمایز‌کننده

In fine-grained recognition, the main category of object is well known and the goal is to determine the subcategory or fine-grained category. Vehicle make and model recognition (VMMR) is a fine-grained classification problem. It includes several challenges like the large number of classes, substantial inner-class and small inter-class distance. VMMR can be utilized when license plate numbers ca...

Using multivariate generalized linear latent variable models to measure the difference in event count for stranded marine animals

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The classification of marine animals as protected species makes data and information on them to be very important. Therefore, this led to the need to retrieve and understand the data on the event counts for stranded marine animals based on location emergence, number of individuals, behavior, and threats to their presence. Whales are g...

A Joint Semantic Vector Representation Model for Text Clustering and Classification

Text clustering and classification are two main tasks of text mining. Feature selection plays the key role in the quality of the clustering and classification results. Although word-based features such as term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF) vectors have been widely used in different applications, their shortcoming in capturing semantic concepts of text motivated researches to use...

Latent classification models for binary data

One of the simplest, and yet most consistently well-performing set of classifiers is the näıve Bayes models (a special class of Bayesian network models). However, these models rely on the (näıve) assumption that all the attributes used to describe an instance are conditionally independent given the class of that instance. To relax this independence assumption, we have in previous work proposed ...
