چکیده

We present here a novel framework for graph-based pattern recognition techniques called Optimum-Path Forest (OPF), which has been demonstrated to be superior than traditional supervised pattern recognition techniques, such as Artificial Neural Networks using Multilayer Perceptrons and Support Vector Machines, in terms of both accuracy and execution times. The OPF-based classifiers model the problem of the pattern recognition as a computation of an optimum-path forest in a graph induced by the dataset samples, achieving very good results in complex situations, i.e., in which we have a large amount of overlapped regions. Results in several real and synthetic datasets show the robustness of the OPF-based classifiers against the above ones.

Supervised Pattern Classification Using Optimum-Path Forest

We present a graph-based framework for pattern recognition, called Optimum-Path Forest (OPF), and describe one of its classifiers developed for the supervised learning case. This classifier does not require parameters and can handle some overlapping among multiple classes with arbitrary shapes. The method reduces the pattern recognition problem into the computation of an optimum-path forest in ...

Design of Pattern Classifiers Using Optimum-Path Forest with Applications in Image Analysis

Current image acquisition and storage technologies have provided large data sets (with millions of samples) for analysis. Samples may be images from an image database, objects extracted from several images, or image pixels. This scenario is very challenging for traditional machine learning and pattern recognition techniques, which need to be more efficient and effective in large data sets. This...

Efficient supervised optimum-path forest classification for large datasets

Data acquisition technologies can provide large datasets with millions of samples for statistical analysis. This creates a tremendous challenge for pattern recognition techniques, which need to be more efficient without loosing their effectiveness. We have tried to circumvent the problem by reducing it into the fast computation of an optimum-path forest (OPF) in a graph derived from the trainin...
