: A-scans from ultrasonic testing of long shafts are complex signals. The discrimination of different types of echoes is of importance for non-destructive testing and equipment mai...
We develop the notion of normalized information distance (NID) [7] into a kernel distance suitable for use with a Support Vector Machine classifier, and demonstrate its use for an...
In this paper, a multi-class feature selection scheme based on recursive feature elimination (RFE) is proposed for texture classifications. The feature selection scheme is perform...
A maximum-entropy approach to generative similarity-based classifiers model is proposed. First, a descriptive set of similarity statistics is assumed to be sufficient for classifi...
Classifiers favoring sparse solutions, such as support vector machines, relevance vector machines, LASSO-regression based classifiers, etc., provide competitive methods for classi...
