Stockwell Transform

In this paper, the conventional Stockwell transform is effectively used to classify the ECG arrhythmias. The performance of ECG classification mainly depends on feature extraction based on an efficient formation of morphological and temporal features and the design of the classifier. Feature extraction is the important component of designing the system based on pattern recognition since even the best classifier will not perform better if the good features are not selected properly. Here, the S-transform (ST) is used to extract the morphological features which is appended with temporal features. This feature set is independently classified using artificial neural network (NN) and support vector machine (SVM). In this work, five classes of ECG beats (normal, ventricular, supra ventricular, fusion and unknown beats) from Massachusetts Institute of Technology-Beth Israel Hospital (MIT-BIH) arrhythmia database are classified according to AAMI EC57 1998 standard (Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation). Performance is evaluated on several normal and abnormal ECG signals of MIT-BIH arrhythmias database using two classifier techniques: ST with NN classifier (ST-NN) and other proposed ST with SVM classifier (ST-SVM). The proposed method achieves accuracy of 98.47%. The performance of the proposed technique is compared with ST-NN and earlier reported technique.

Classification of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals plays an important role in clinical diagnosis of heart disease. This paper proposes the design of an efficient system for classification of the normal beat (N), ventricular ectopic beat (V), supraventricular ectopic beat (S), fusion beat (F), and unknown beat (Q) using a mixture of features. In this paper, two different feature extraction methods are proposed for classification of ECG beats: (i) S-transform based features along with temporal features and (ii) mixture of ST and WT based features along with temporal features. The extracted feature set is independently classified using multilayer perceptron neural network (MLPNN). The performances are evaluated on several normal and abnormal ECG signals from 44 recordings of the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database. In this work, the performances of three feature extraction techniques with MLP-NN classifier are compared using five classes of ECG beat recommended by AAMI (Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation) standards. The average sensitivity performances of the proposed feature extraction technique for N, S, F, V, and Q are 95.70%, 78.05%, 49.60%, 89.68%, and 33.89%, respectively. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed feature extraction techniques show better performances compared to other existing features extraction techniques.

Abstract The paper presents a new system for ECG (ElectroCardioGraphy) signal recognition using different neural classifiers and a binary decision tree to provide one more processing stage to give the final recognition result. As the base classifiers, the three classical neural models, i.e., the MLP (Multi Layer Perceptron), modified TSK (Takagi-Sugeno-Kang) and the SVM (Support Vector Machine), will be applied. The coefficients in ECG signal decomposition using Hermite basis functions and the peak-to-peak periods of the ECG signals will be used as features for the classifiers. Numerical experiments will be performed for the recognition of different types of arrhythmia in the ECG signals taken from the MIT-BIH (Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Boston’s Beth Israel Hospital) Arrhythmia Database. The results will be compared with individual base classifiers’ performances and with other integration methods to show the high quality of the proposed solution

This paper proposes a new feature extraction method for off-line recognition of Myanmar printed documents. One of the most important factors to achieve high recognition performance in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) system is the selection of the feature extraction methods. Different types of existing OCR systems used various feature extraction methods because of the diversity of the scripts’ natures. One major contribution of the work in this paper is the design of logically rigorous coding based features. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, this paper assumed the documents are successfully segmented into characters and extracted features from these isolated Myanmar characters. These features are extracted using structural analysis of the Myanmar scripts. The experimental results have been carried out using the Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier and compare the pervious proposed feature extraction method.

Aircraft Type

Aircraft type recognition plays an important role in remote sensing image interpretation. Traditional methods suffer from bad generalization performance, while deep learning methods require large amounts of data with type labels, which are quite expensive and time-consuming to obtain. To overcome the aforementioned problems, in this paper, we propose an aircraft type recognition framework based on conditional generative adversarial networks (GANs). First, we design a new method to precisely detect aircrafts’ keypoints, which are used to generate aircraft masks and locate the positions of the aircrafts. Second, a conditional GAN with a region of interest (ROI)-weighted loss function is trained on unlabeled aircraft images and their corresponding masks. Third, an ROI feature extraction method is carefully designed to extract multi-scale features from the GAN in the regions of aircrafts. After that, a linear support vector machine (SVM) classifier is adopted to classify each sample using their features. Benefiting from the GAN, we can learn features which are strong enough to represent aircrafts based on a large unlabeled dataset. Additionally, the ROI-weighted loss function and the ROI feature extraction method make the features more related to the aircrafts rather than the background, which improves the quality of features and increases the recognition accuracy significantly. Thorough experiments were conducted on a challenging dataset, and the results prove the effectiveness of the proposed aircraft type recognition framework.

Neonatal infants communicate with us through cries. The infant cry signals have distinct patterns depending on the purpose of the cries. Preprocessing, feature extraction, and feature selection need expert attention and take much effort in audio signals in recent days. In deep learning techniques, it automatically extracts and selects the most important features. For this, it requires an enormous amount of data for effective classification. This work mainly discriminates the neonatal cries into pain, hunger, and sleepiness. The neonatal cry auditory signals are transformed into a spectrogram image by utilizing the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) technique. The deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) technique takes the spectrogram images for input. The features are obtained from the convolutional neural network and are passed to the support vector machine (SVM) classifier. Machine learning technique classifies neonatal cries. This work combines the advantages of machine learning and deep learning techniques to get the best results even with a moderate number of data samples. The experimental result shows that CNN-based feature extraction and SVM classifier provides promising results. While comparing the SVM-based kernel techniques, namely radial basis function (RBF), linear and polynomial, it is found that SVM-RBF provides the highest accuracy of kernel-based infant cry classification system provides 88.89% accuracy.

Persian handwritten digit recognition is one of the important topics of image processing which significantly considered by researchers due to its many applications. The most important challenges in Persian handwritten digit recognition is the existence of various patterns in Persian digit writing that makes the feature extraction step to be more complicated.Since the handcraft feature extraction methods are complicated processes and their performance level are not stable, most of the recent studies have concentrated on proposing a suitable method for automatic feature extraction. In this paper, an automatic method based on machine learning is proposed for high-level feature extraction from Persian digit images by using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). After that, a non-linear multi-class Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier is used for data classification instead of fully connected layer in final layer of CNN. The proposed method has been applied to HODA dataset and obtained 99.56% of recognition rate. Experimental results are comparable with previous state-of-the-art methods

Many applications in image analysis require the accurate classification of complex patterns including both color and texture, e.g., in content image retrieval, biometrics, and the inspection of fabrics, wood, steel, ceramics, and fruits, among others. A new method for pattern classification using both color and texture information is proposed in this paper. The proposed method includes the following steps: division of each image into global and local samples, texture and color feature extraction from samples using a Haralick statistics and binary quaternion-moment-preserving method, a classification stage using support vector machine, and a final stage of post-processing employing a bagging ensemble. One of the main contributions of this method is the image partition, allowing image representation into global and local features. This partition captures most of the information present in the image for colored texture classification allowing improved results. The proposed method was tested on four databases extensively used in color–texture classification: the Brodatz, VisTex, Outex, and KTH-TIPS2b databases, yielding correct classification rates of 97.63%, 97.13%, 90.78%, and 92.90%, respectively. The use of the post-processing stage improved those results to 99.88%, 100%, 98.97%, and 95.75%, respectively. We compared our results to the best previously published results on the same databases finding significant improvements in all cases.

Sentiment analysis is one of the popular techniques gaining attention in recent times. Nowadays, people gain information on reviews of users regarding public transportation, movies, hotel reservation, etc., by utilizing the resources available, as they meet their needs. Hence, sentiment classification is an essential process employed to determine the positive and negative responses. This paper presents an approach for sentiment classification of train reviews using MapReduce model with the proposed Kernel Optimized-Support Vector Machine (KO-SVM) classifier. The MapReduce framework handles big data using a mapper, which performs feature extraction and reducer that classifies the review based on KO-SVM classification. The feature extraction process utilizes features that are classification-specific and SentiWordNet-based. KO-SVM adopts SVM for the classification, where the exponential kernel is replaced by an optimized kernel, finding the weights using a novel optimizer, Self-adaptive Lion Algorithm (SLA). In a comparative analysis, the performance of KO-SVM classifier is compared with SentiWordNet, NB, NN, and LSVM, using the evaluation metrics, specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy, with train review and movie review database. The proposed KO-SVM classifier could attain maximum sensitivity of 93.46% and 91.249% specificity of 74.485% and 70.018%; and accuracy of 84.341% and 79.611% respectively, for train review and movie review databases.

AbstractIn the context of improved navigation for micro aerial vehicles, a new scene recognition visual descriptor, called spatial color gist wavelet descriptor (SCGWD), is proposed. SCGWD was developed by combining proposed Ohta color-GIST wavelet descriptors with census transform histogram (CENTRIST) spatial pyramid representation descriptors for categorizing indoor versus outdoor scenes. A binary and multiclass support vector machine (SVM) classifier with linear and non-linear kernels was used to classify indoor versus outdoor scenes and indoor scenes, respectively. In this paper, we have also discussed the feature extraction methodology of several, state-of-the-art visual descriptors, and four proposed visual descriptors (Ohta color-GIST descriptors, Ohta color-GIST wavelet descriptors, enhanced Ohta color histogram descriptors, and SCGWDs), in terms of experimental perspectives. The proposed enhanced Ohta color histogram descriptors, Ohta color-GIST descriptors, Ohta color-GIST wavelet descriptors, SCGWD, and state-of-the-art visual descriptors were evaluated, using the Indian Institute of Technology Madras Scene Classification Image Database two, an Indoor-Outdoor Dataset, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology indoor scene classification dataset [(MIT)-67]. Experimental results showed that the indoor versus outdoor scene recognition algorithm, employing SVM with SCGWDs, produced the highest classification rates (CRs)—95.48% and 99.82% using radial basis function kernel (RBF) kernel and 95.29% and 99.45% using linear kernel for the IITM SCID2 and Indoor-Outdoor datasets, respectively. The lowest CRs—2.08% and 4.92%, respectively—were obtained when RBF and linear kernels were used with the MIT-67 dataset. In addition, higher CRs, precision, recall, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve values were obtained for the proposed SCGWDs, in comparison with state-of-the-art visual descriptors.

Analysis of heart sound is of great importance to the diagnosis of heart diseases. Most of the feature extraction methods about heart sound have focused on linear time-variant or time-invariant models. While heart sound is a kind of highly nonstationary and nonlinear vibration signal, traditional methods cannot fully reveal its essential properties. In this paper, a novel feature extraction approach is proposed for heart sound classification and recognition. The ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) method is used to decompose the heart sound into a finite number of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), and the correlation dimensions of the main IMF components (IMF1~IMF4) are calculated as feature set. Then the classical Binary Tree Support Vector Machine (BT-SVM) classifier is employed to classify the heart sounds which include the normal heart sounds (NHSs) and three kinds of abnormal signals namely mitral stenosis (MT), ventricular septal defect (VSD) and aortic stenosis (AS). Finally, the performance of the new feature set is compared with the correlation dimensions of original signals and the main IMF components obtained by the EMD method. The results showed that, for NHSs, the feature set proposed in this paper performed the best with recognition rate of 98.67%. For the abnormal signals, the best recognition rate of 91.67% was obtained. Therefore, the proposed feature set is more superior to two comparative feature sets, which has potential application in the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases.
