Breast cancer is life threatening and dangerous diseases among the women across the world. In this paper, mammogram image classification performed using LS-SVM with various kernels functions namely, Gaussian Radial Basis Function (GRBF) kernel, Polynomial kernel, Quadratic kernel, Linear kernel and MLP kernel. Shearlet transform is a multidimensional version of the composite dilation wavelet transform, and is especially designed to address anisotropic and directional information at various scales and directions, which is used to decompose the regions of interest (ROI) image after preprocessing stage. Initially, mammogram images are transformed into different resolution levels from 2 levels to 4 levels with various directions varying from 2 to 64. The evaluation of the system is carried out on the Mammography Image Analysis Society (MIAS) database. From the experimental analysis, based on classification accuracy and Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC), it is concluded that LS-SVM with Gaussian RBF kernel function outperforms than Quadratic, polynomial, linear and MLP kernel functions. The classifiers were validated with leave-one-out (training) and cross-validation (testing) modes.

In this paper, a framework is developed based on Support Vector Machines (SVM) for crop classification using polarimetric features extracted from multi-temporal Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imageries. The multi-temporal integration of data not only improves the overall retrieval accuracy but also provides more reliable estimates with respect to single-date data. Several kernel functions are employed and compared in this study for mapping the input space to higher Hilbert dimension space. These kernel functions include linear, polynomials and Radial Based Function (RBF). <br><br> The method is applied to several UAVSAR L-band SAR images acquired over an agricultural area near Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. In this research, the temporal alpha features of H/A/α decomposition method are used in classification. The experimental tests show an SVM classifier with RBF kernel for three dates of data increases the Overall Accuracy (OA) to up to 3% in comparison to using linear kernel function, and up to 1% in comparison to a 3rd degree polynomial kernel function.

An enhanced classification system for classification of MR images using association of kernels with support vector machine is developed and presented in this paper along with the design and development of content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system. Content of image retrieval is the process of finding relevant image from large collection of image database using visual queries. Medical images have led to growth in large image collection. Oriented Rician Noise Reduction Anisotropic Diffusion filter is used for image denoising. A modified hybrid Otsu algorithm termed is used for image segmentation. The texture features are extracted using GLCM method. Genetic algorithm with Joint entropy is adopted for feature selection. The classification is done by support vector machine along with various kernels and the performance is validated. A classification accuracy of 98.83% is obtained using SVM with GRBF kernel. Various features have been extracted and these features are used to classify MR images into five different categories. Performance of the MC-SVM classifier is compared with different kernel functions. From the analysis and performance measures like classification accuracy, it is inferred that the brain and spinal cord MRI classification is best done using MC- SVM with Gaussian RBF kernel function than linear and polynomial kernel functions. The proposed system can provide best classification performance with high accuracy and low error rate.

Early detection of pancreatic cancer is difficult, and thus many cases of pancreatic cancer are diagnosed late. When pancreatic cancer is detected, the cancer is usually well developed. Machine learning is an approach that is part of artificial intelligence and can detect pancreatic cancer early. This paper proposes a machine learning approach with the twin support vector machine (TWSVM) method as a new approach to detecting pancreatic cancer early. TWSVM aims to find two symmetry planes such that each plane has a distance close to one data class and as far as possible from another data class. TWSVM is fast in building a model and has good generalizations. However, TWSVM requires kernel functions to operate in the feature space. The kernel functions commonly used are the linear kernel, polynomial kernel, and radial basis function (RBF) kernel. This paper uses the TWSVM method with these kernels and compares the best kernel for use by TWSVM to detect pancreatic cancer early. In this paper, the TWSVM model with each kernel is evaluated using a 10-fold cross validation. The results obtained are that TWSVM based on the kernel is able to detect pancreatic cancer with good performance. However, the best kernel obtained is the RBF kernel, which produces an accuracy of 98%, a sensitivity of 97%, a specificity of 100%, and a running time of around 1.3408 s.

The blurring of crop images acquired by agricultural Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) due to sudden inputs by operators, atmospheric disturbance, and many other factors will eventually affect the subsequent crop identification, information extraction, and yield estimation. Aiming at the above problems, the new proposed combined deblurring algorithm based on the re-weighted graph total variation (RGTV) and L0-regularized prior, and the other two representative deblurring algorithms were applied to restore blurry crop images acquired during UAV flight, respectively. The restoration performance was measured by subjective vision, and objective evaluation indexes. The crop shape-related and texture-related feature parameters were then extracted, the Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier with four common kernel functions was implemented for crop classification to realize the purpose of crop information extraction. The deblurring results showed that the proposed algorithm performed better in suppressing the ringing effect and preserving the image fine details, and retained higher objective evaluation indexes than the other two deblurring algorithms. The comparative analysis of different classification kernel functions showed that the Polynomial kernel function with an average recognition rate of 94.83% was most suitable for crop classification and recognition. The research will help in further popularization of crop monitoring based on UAV low-altitude remote sensing.

These two kernel functions were chosen due to their popularity in any kernel-based machine learning method for solving the classification task. The hepatitis dataset then used to evaluate the performance of both methods that were expected to provide an accurate diagnosis in patients to obtain treatment at an early phase. The data were obtained from two hospitals in Indonesia, consisting of 89 hepatitis-B and 31 hepatitis-C samples. The data were analyzed using several cases of k-fold cross-validation, and the performances were compared according to their accuracy, sensitivity, precision, F1-Score, and running time. From the experiments, it was concluded that fuzzy kernel k-medoids using RBF kernel function is better compared to polynomial kernel function with the 6% increment of accuracy, 13% enhancement of sensitivity, and 5% improvement in F1-Score. On the other side, the precision of fuzzy kernel k-medoids using polynomial kernel function is 2% higher than using the RBF kernel function. According to the results, the use of RBF or polynomial kernel function in fuzzy kernel medoids can be considered according to the primary goal of the classification.</span></span>

The scientific and accurate prediction for state of bearing is the key to ensure its safe operation. A multiple-kernel relevance vector machine (MkRVM) including RBF kernel and polynomial kernel is proposed for state prediction of bearing in this study; the proportions of RBF kernel and polynomial kernel are determined by a controlled parameter. As the selection of the parameters of the kernel functions and the controlled parameter has a certain influence on the prediction results of MkRVM, nonlinear decreasing inertia weight PSO (NDIWPSO) is used to select its kernel parameters and controlled parameter. The RBF kernel RVM model with NDIWPSO (NDIWPSO-RBFRVM) and the polynomial kernel RVM model with NDIWPSO (NDIWPSO-PolyRVM) are used, respectively, to compare with the multiple-kernel RVM model with NDIWPSO (NDIWPSO-MkRVM). The experimental results indicate that NDIWPSO-MkRVM is more suitable for the state prediction of bearing than NDIWPSO-RBFRVM and NDIWPSO-PolyRVM.

Abstract For the purpose of improving the classification accuracy of single trial EEG signal during motor imagery (MI) process, this study proposed a classification method which combined IMF energy entropy and improved EMD scheme. Singular value decomposition (SVD), Gaussian mixture model, EMD and IMF energy entropy were employed for the newly designed scheme. After removing noise and artifacts from acquired EEG signals in EEGLAB, SVD was applied, and the singular values were clustered by Gaussian mixture model. The insignificant characteristics indicated by the small SVD values were then removed, and the signals were reconstructed, feeding to EMD algorithm. Those IMFs mapping to δ、θ、α and β frequencies were selected as the major features of the EEG signal. The SVM classifier with RBF, linear, and polynomial kernel functions and voting mechanism then kicked in for classification. The results were compared with that of the traditional EMD and EEMD through simulation, showing that the proposed scheme can eliminate mode mixing effectively and improve the single trial EEG signal classification accuracy significantly, suggesting the probability of designing a more efficient EEG control system based on the proposed scheme.

Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals, which record the electrical activity in the brain, are useful for assessing the mental state of a person. Since these signals are nonlinear and non-stationary in nature, it is very difficult to decipher the useful information from them using conventional statistical and frequency domain methods. Hence, the application of nonlinear time series analysis to EEG signals could be useful to study the dynamical nature and variability of the brain signals. In this paper, we propose a Computer Aided Diagnostic (CAD) technique for the automated identification of normal and alcoholic EEG signals using nonlinear features. We first extract nonlinear features such as Approximate Entropy (ApEn), Largest Lyapunov Exponent (LLE), Sample Entropy (SampEn), and four other Higher Order Spectra (HOS) features, and then use them to train Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier of varying kernel functions: 1st, 2nd, and 3rd order polynomials and a Radial basis function (RBF) kernel. Our results indicate that these nonlinear measures are good discriminators of normal and alcoholic EEG signals. The SVM classifier with a polynomial kernel of order 1 could distinguish the two classes with an accuracy of 91.7%, sensitivity of 90% and specificity of 93.3%. As a pre-analysis step, the EEG signals were tested for nonlinearity using surrogate data analysis and we found that there was a significant difference in the LLE measure of the actual data and the surrogate data.
