Feature Extraction And Selection

It is a difficult and important task to classify the types of military vehicles using the acoustic and seismic signals generated by military vehicles. For improving the classification accuracy and reducing the computing time and memory size, we investigated different pre-processing technology, feature extraction and selection methods. Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT) was employed for feature extraction. Genetic Algorithms (GA) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) were used for feature selection and extraction further. A new feature vector construction method was proposed by uniting PCA and another feature selection method. K-Nearest Neighbor Classifier (KNN) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) were used for classification. The experimental results showed the accuracies of KNN and SVM were affected obviously by the window size which was used to frame the time series of the acoustic and seismic signals. The classification results indicated the performance of SVM was superior to that of KNN. The comparison of the four feature selection and extraction methods showed the proposed method is a simple, none time-consuming, and reliable technique for feature selection and helps the classifier SVM to achieve more better results than solely using PCA, GA, or combination.

Feature extraction and selection are important parts of motor imagery electroencephalogram (EEG) decoding and have always been the focus and difficulty of brain-computer interface (BCI) system research. In order to improve the accuracy of EEG decoding and reduce model training time, new feature extraction and selection methods are proposed in this paper. First, a new spatial-frequency feature extraction method is proposed. The original EEG signal is preprocessed, and then the common spatial pattern (CSP) is used for spatial filtering and dimensionality reduction. Finally, the filter bank method is used to decompose the spatially filtered signals into multiple frequency subbands, and the logarithmic band power feature of each frequency subband is extracted. Second, to select the subject-specific spatial-frequency features, a hybrid feature selection method based on the Fisher score and support vector machine (SVM) is proposed. The Fisher score of each feature is calculated, then a series of threshold parameters are set to generate different feature subsets, and finally, SVM and cross-validation are used to select the optimal feature subset. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated using two sets of publicly available BCI competition data and a set of self-collected data. The total average accuracy of the three data sets achieved by the proposed method is 82.39%, which is 2.99% higher than the CSP method. The experimental results show that the proposed method has a better classification effect than the existing methods, and at the same time, feature extraction and feature selection time also have greater advantages.

This paper introduces the design of a text categorization system based on Support Vector Machine (SVM). It analyzes the high dimensional characteristic of text data, the reason why SVM is suitable for text categorization. According to system data flow this system is constructed. This system consists of three subsystems which are text representation, classifier training and text classification. The core of this system is the classifier training, but text representation directly influences the currency of classifier and the performance of the system. Text feature vector space can be built by different kinds of feature selection and feature extraction methods. No research can indicate which one is the best method, so many feature selection and feature extraction methods are all developed in this system. For a specific classification task every feature selection method and every feature extraction method will be tested, and then a set of the best methods will be adopted.

Lamb wave approaches have been accepted as efficiently non-destructive evaluations in structural health monitoring for identifying damage in different states. Despite significant efforts in signal process of Lamb waves, physics-based prediction is still a big challenge due to complexity nature of the Lamb wave when it propagates, scatters and disperses. Machine learning in recent years has created transformative opportunities for accelerating knowledge discovery and accurately disseminating information where conventional Lamb wave approaches cannot work. Therefore, the learning framework was proposed with a workflow from dataset generation, to sensitive feature extraction, to prediction model for lamb-wave-based damage detection. A total of 17 damage states in terms of different damage type, sizes and orientations were designed to train the feature extraction and sensitive feature selection. A machine learning method, support vector machine (SVM), was employed for the learning model. A grid searching (GS) technique was adopted to optimize the parameters of the SVM model. The results show that the machine learning-enriched Lamb wave-based damage detection method is an efficient and accuracy wave to identify the damage severity and orientation. Results demonstrated that different features generated from different domains had certain levels of sensitivity to damage, while the feature selection method revealed that time-frequency features and wavelet coefficients exhibited the highest damage-sensitivity. These features were also much more robust to noise. With increase of noise, the accuracy of the classification dramatically dropped.

To discover the influence of the commercial videos’ low-level features on the popularity of the videos, the feature selection method should be used to get the video features influencing the videos’ evaluation mostly after analyzing the source data and the audiences’ evaluations of the videos. After extracting the low-level features of the videos, this paper improved the Correlation-Based Feature Selection (CFS) method which is widely used and proposed an algorithm named CFS-Spearmen which combined the Spearmen correlation coefficient and the classical CFS to select features. The 4 datasets in UCI machine learning database were employed as the experiment data. The experiment results were compared with the results using traditional CFS, Minimum Redundancy and Maximum Relevance (mRMR). The SVM was used to test the method in this paper. Finally, the proposed method was used in commercial videos’ feature selection and the most influential feature set was obtained.

Power quality disturbances (PQDs) have a large negative impact on electric power systems with the increasing use of sensitive electrical loads. This paper presents a novel hybrid algorithm for PQD detection and classification. The proposed method is constructed while using the following main steps: computer simulation of PQD signals, signal decomposition, feature extraction, heuristic selection of feature selection, and classification. First, different types of PQD signals are generated by computer simulation. Second, variational mode decomposition (VMD) is used to decompose the signals into several instinct mode functions (IMFs). Third, the statistical features are calculated in the time series for each IMF. Next, a two-stage feature selection method is imported to eliminate the redundant features by utilizing permutation entropy and the Fisher score algorithm. Finally, the selected feature vectors are fed into a multiclass support vector machine (SVM) model to classify the PQDs. Several experimental investigations are performed to verify the performance and effectiveness of the proposed method in a noisy environment. Moreover, the results demonstrate that the start and end points of the PQD can be efficiently detected.

Selection Methods

In Microarray Data, it is complicated to achieve more classification accuracy due to the presence of high dimensions, irrelevant and noisy data. And also It had more gene expression data and fewer samples. To increase the classification accuracy and the processing speed of the model, an optimal number of features need to extract, this can be achieved by applying the feature selection method. In this paper, we propose a hybrid ensemble feature selection method. The proposed method has two phases, filter and wrapper phase in filter phase ensemble technique is used for aggregating the feature ranks of the Relief, minimum redundancy Maximum Relevance (mRMR), and Feature Correlation (FC) filter feature selection methods. This paper uses the Fuzzy Gaussian membership function ordering for aggregating the ranks. In wrapper phase, Improved Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (IBPSO) is used for selecting the optimal features, and the RBF Kernel-based Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier is used as an evaluator. The performance of the proposed model are compared with state of art feature selection methods using five benchmark datasets. For evaluation various performance metrics such as Accuracy, Recall, Precision, and F1-Score are used. Furthermore, the experimental results show that the performance of the proposed method outperforms the other feature selection methods.

A feature selection method based on mutual information and support vector machine (SVM) is proposed in order to eliminate redundant feature and improve classification accuracy. First, local correlation between features and overall correlation is calculated by mutual information. The correlation reflects the information inclusion relationship between features, so the features are evaluated and redundant features are eliminated with analyzing the correlation. Subsequently, the concept of mean impact value (MIV) is defined and the influence degree of input variables on output variables for SVM network based on MIV is calculated. The importance weights of the features described with MIV are sorted by descending order. Finally, the SVM classifier is used to implement feature selection according to the classification accuracy of feature combination which takes MIV order of feature as a reference. The simulation experiments are carried out with three standard data sets of UCI, and the results show that this method can not only effectively reduce the feature dimension and high classification accuracy, but also ensure good robustness.

The measurement of spacecraft electrical characteristics and multi-label classification issues are generally including a large amount of unlabeled test data processing, high-dimensional feature redundancy, time-consumed computation, and identification of slow rate. In this paper, a fuzzy c-means offline (FCM) clustering algorithm and the approximate weighted proximal support vector machine (WPSVM) online recognition approach have been proposed to reduce the feature size and improve the speed of classification of electrical characteristics in the spacecraft. In addition, the main component analysis for the complex signals based on the principal component feature extraction is used for the feature selection process. The data capture contribution approach by using thresholds is furthermore applied to resolve the selection problem of the principal component analysis (PCA), which effectively guarantees the validity and consistency of the data. Experimental results indicate that the proposed approach in this paper can obtain better fault diagnosis results of the spacecraft electrical characteristics’ data, improve the accuracy of identification, and shorten the computing time with high efficiency.
