A pseudoregression formulation of emphasized soft target procedures for classification problems

چکیده
Replacing a hard decision by a soft targets version including an attentional mechanism provides performance advantage and flexibility to solve classification tasks. In this paper, we modify the standard emphasized soft target method by proposing two new ideas, to avoid unnecessary updating and inappropriate definition of soft targets, in order to increase designs performance. Experimental results using MLPs show the effectiveness of this approach compared with the standard ST and other methods.

Using MOLP based procedures to solve DEA problems
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a technique used to evaluate the relative efficiency of comparable decision making units (DMUs) with multiple input-output. It computes a scalar measure of efficiency and discriminates between efficient and inefficient DMUs. It can also provide reference units for inefficient DMUs without consideration of the decision makers’ (DMs) preferences. In this paper, ...
متن کاملAn emphasized target smoothing procedure to improve MLP classifiers performance
Standard learning procedures are better fitted to estimation than to classification problems, and focusing the training on appropriate samples provides performance advantages in classification tasks. In this paper, we combine these ideas creating smooth targets for classification by means of a convex combination of the original target and the output of an auxiliary classifier, the combination p...

This paper studies the ambulance routing problem (ARP) in disaster situations when a large number of injured people from various locations require receiving treatments and medical aids. In such circumstances, many people summoning the ambulances but the capacity and number of emergency vehicles are not sufficient to visit all the patients at the same time. Therefore, a pivotal issue is to manag...
متن کاملSample-oriented Domain Adaptation for Image Classification
Image processing is a method to perform some operations on an image, in order to get an enhanced image or to extract some useful information from it. The conventional image processing algorithms cannot perform well in scenarios where the training images (source domain) that are used to learn the model have a different distribution with test images (target domain). Also, many real world applicat...
متن کاملA Soft-Input Soft-Output Target Detection Algorithm for Passive Radar
Abstract: This paper proposes a novel scheme for multi-static passive radar processing, based on soft-input soft-output processing and Bayesian sparse estimation. In this scheme, each receiver estimates the probability of target presence based on its received signal and the prior information received from a central processor. The resulting posterior target probabilities are transmitted to the c...
