Human-computer interaction (HCI), in recent times, is gaining a lot of significance. The systems based on HCI have been designed for recognizing different facial expressions. The application areas for face recognition include robotics, safety, and surveillance system. The emotions so captured aid in predicting future actions in addition to providing valuable information. Fear, neutral, sad, surprise, happy are the categories of primary emotions. From the database of still images, certain features can be obtained using Gabor Filter (GF) and Histogram of Oriented Gradient (HOG). These two techniques are being used while extracting features for getting the expressions from the face. This paper focuses on the customized classification of GF and HOG using the KNN classifier.GF provides texture features whereas HOG finds applications for images exhibiting differing lighting conditions. Simplicity and linearity of KNN classifier appeals for its use in the present application. The paper also elaborates various distances used in KNN classifiers like city-block, Euclidean and correlation distance. This paper uses Matlab implementation of GF, HOG and KNN for extracting the required features and classification, respectively. Results exhibit that the accuracy of city- block distance is more .

Complete Matrix

Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal is critical to the classification of cardiac arrhythmia using some machine learning methods. In practice, the ECG datasets are usually with multiple missing values due to faults or distortion. Unfortunately, many established algorithms for classification require a fully complete matrix as input. Thus it is necessary to impute the missing data to increase the effectiveness of classification for datasets with a few missing values. In this paper, we compare the main methods for estimating the missing values in electrocardiogram data, e.g., the “Zero method”, “Mean method”, “PCA-based method”, and “RPCA-based method” and then propose a novel KNN-based classification algorithm, i.e., a modified kernel Difference-Weighted KNN classifier (MKDF-WKNN), which is fit for the classification of imbalance datasets. The experimental results on the UCI database indicate that the “RPCA-based method” can successfully handle missing values in arrhythmia dataset no matter how many values in it are missing and our proposed classification algorithm, MKDF-WKNN, is superior to other state-of-the-art algorithms like KNN, DS-WKNN, DF-WKNN, and KDF-WKNN for uneven datasets which impacts the accuracy of classification.
