<p>Speech disfluency such as filled pause (FP) is a hindrance in Automated Speech Recognition as it degrades the accuracy performance. Previous work of FP detection and classification have fused a number of acoustical features as fusion classification is known to improve classification results. This paper presents new decision fusion of two well-established acoustical features that are zero crossing rates (ZCR) and speech envelope (ENV) with eight popular acoustical features for classification of Malay language filled pause (FP) and elongation (ELO). Five hundred ELO and 500 FP are selected from a spontaneous speeches of a parliamentary session and Naïve Bayes classifier is used for the decision fusion classification. The proposed feature fusion produced better classification performance compared to single feature classification with the highest F-measure of 82% for both classes.</p>

Recently, extended multi-attribute profiles (EMAPs) have attracted much attention due to its good performance while applied to remote sensing images feature extraction and classification. Since the EMAPs connect multiple attribute features without considering the pixel-based Hyperspectral Image (HSI) classification, homogeneous regions may become unsmooth due to the noise to be introduced. To tackle this problem, we propose the weighted EMAPs (WEMAPs) to reduce the noise and smoothen the homogeneous regions based on weighted mean filter (WMF). Then, we construct multiscale WEMAPs to product multiscale feature in order to extract different spatial structures of the HSI and produce better classification results. Finally, a new joint decision fusion and feature fusion (JDFFF) framework is proposed based on the decision fusion (DF) and the multiscale WEMAPs (MWEMAPs) based on extreme learning machine (ELM) classifier. That is, the classification results from various scales are combined into a final one with ELM to perform the HSI classification. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm significantly outperforms many state-of-the-art HSI classification algorithms.

Recent developments in hyperspectral images have heightened the need for advanced classification methods. To reach this goal, this paper proposed an improved spectral-spatial method for hyperspectral image classification. The proposed method mainly consists of three steps. First, four band selection strategies are proposed to utilize the statistical region merging (SRM) method to segment the hyperspectral image. The segmentation map is subsequently integrated with the pixel-wise classification method to classify the hyperspectral image. Finally, the final classification result is obtained using the decision fusion rule. Validation tests are performed to evaluate the performance of the proposed approach, and the results indicate that the new proposed approach outperforms the state-of-the-art methods.

The fusion of the hyperspectral image (HSI) and the light detecting and ranging (LiDAR) data has a wide range of applications. This paper proposes a novel feature fusion method for urban area classification, namely the relative total variation structure analysis (RTVSA), to combine various features derived from HSI and LiDAR data. In the feature extraction stage, a variety of high-performance methods including the extended multi-attribute profile, Gabor filter, and local binary pattern are used to extract the features of the input data. The relative total variation is then applied to remove useless texture information of the processed data. Finally, nonparametric weighted feature extraction is adopted to reduce the dimensions. Random forest and convolutional neural networks are utilized to evaluate the fusion images. Experiments conducted on two urban Houston University datasets (including Houston 2012 and the training portion of Houston 2017) demonstrate that the proposed method can extract the structural correlation from heterogeneous data, withstand a noise well, and improve the land cover classification accuracy.
