an important property that has been extensively studied in quantitative structure activityrelationship (qsar) is the chromatographic retention index. qsar study is suggested for theprediction of retention index of alkanes and alkenes compounds. modeling of the retention indexof alkanes and alkenes compounds as a function of molecular structures was established bydifferent chemometrics methods. ...

Nowadays, support vector machines (SVM) are receiving increasing attention in land cover/use classification although one of the major drawbacks of the technique is the kernel function selection and its parameters setting. In this paper, a novel SVM parameters optimization method based on selfadaptive mutation particle swarm optimizer (SAMPSO-SVM) is proposed to improve the generalization perfor...

The standard -norm SVM is known for its good performance in twoclass classification. In this paper, we consider the -norm SVM. We argue that the -norm SVM may have some advantage over the standard -norm SVM, especially when there are redundant noise features. We also propose an efficient algorithm that computes the whole solution path of the -norm SVM, hence facilitates adaptive selection of th...

landsat data for 1992, 2000, and 2013 land use changes for ekbatan dam watershed was simulated through ca-markov” model. two classification methods were initially used, viz. the maximum likelihood (mal) and support vector machine (svm). although both methods showed high overall accuracy and kappa coefficient, visually mal failed in separating land uses, particularly built up and dry lands.there...

BACKGROUND Support vector machine (SVM) has been widely used as accurate and reliable method to decipher brain patterns from functional MRI (fMRI) data. Previous studies have not found a clear benefit for non-linear (polynomial kernel) SVM versus linear one. Here, a more effective non-linear SVM using radial basis function (RBF) kernel is compared with linear SVM. Different from traditional stu...

In this paper we evaluate an instance-based spam filter based on the SVM nearest neighbor (SVM-NN) classifier, which combines the ideas of SVM and k-nearest neighbor. To label a message the classifier first finds k nearest labeled messages, and then an SVM model is trained on these k samples and used to label the unknown sample. Here we present preliminary results of the comparison of SVM-NN wi...

The use of support vector machine (SVM) for function approximation has increased over the past few years. Unfortunately, the practical use of SVM is limited because the quality of SVM models heavily depends on a proper setting of SVM hyper-parameters and SVM kernel parameters. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an automated, reliable, and relatively fast approach to determine the values of t...

This paper focuses on the feature gene selection for cancer classification, which employs an optimization algorithm to select a subset of the genes. We propose a binary quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization (BQPSO) for cancer feature gene selection, coupling support vector machine (SVM) for cancer classification. First, the proposed BQPSO algorithm is described, which is a discretized ver...
