Heart rate (HR) is one of the vital signs used to assess our physical condition; it would be beneficial if HR could easily be obtained without special medical instruments. In this study, a feature of vocal frequency was used to estimate HR, because it can easily be recorded with a common device such as a smartphone. Previous studies proposed that a support vector machine (SVM) that adopted the inner product as the kernel function was efficient for estimating HR to a certain extent. However, these studies did not present the effectiveness of other kernel functions, such as the hyperbolic tangent function. Therefore, this study identified a combination of kernel functions of the kernel ridge regression (KRR). In addition, features of vocal frequency to effectively estimate HR were investigated. To evaluate the effectiveness, experiments were conducted with two subjects. In the experiment, 60 sets of HRs and voice data were measured per subject. To identify the most effective kernel function, four kernel functions (the inner function, Gaussian function, polynomial function, and hyperbolic tangent function) were compared. Moreover, effective features of vocal frequency were selected with the sequential feature selection (SFS) method. As a consequence, the hyperbolic tangent function worked best, and high-frequency components of voice were efficient. However, results of this research indicated that effective vocal spectrum components to estimate HR differ depending on prediction models.

The choice of kernel function and its parameter is very important for better performance of support vector machine. In this chapter, the authors proposed few new kernel functions which satisfy the Mercer’s conditions and a robust algorithm to automatically determine the suitable kernel function and its parameters based on AdaBoost to improve the performance of support vector machine. The performance of proposed algorithm is evaluated on several benchmark datasets from UCI repository. The experimental results for different datasets show that the Gaussian kernel is not always the best choice to achieve high generalization of support vector machine classifier. However, with the proper choice of kernel function and its parameters using proposed algorithm, it is possible to achieve maximum classification accuracy for all datasets.

Abstract The pattern analysis technology based on kernel methods is a new technology, which combines good performance and strict theory. With support vector machine, pattern analysis is easy and fast. But the existing kernel function fits the requirement. In the paper, we explore the new mixed kernel functions which are mixed with Gaussian and Wavelet function, Gaussian and Polynomial kernel function. With the new mixed kernel functions, we check different parameters. The results shows that the new mixed kernel functions have good time efficiency and accuracy. In image recognition we used SVM with two mixed kernel functions, the mixed kernel function of Gaussian and Wavelet function are suitable for more states.

The way of kernel function has been widely applied in machine learning field, such as artificial neural network and support vector machine, for avoiding dimensional disaster of feature space and improving performance of learning machine effectively. The selection of kernel function and construction of new kernel are the core problems, which have a direct relation with the performance of classification, and the research of this field is not enough. In this paper support vector machine (SVM) was used as an example, and the performance of common kernel functions was evaluated through observing and computing the features of kernel matrix. Base on this, a new mixed kernel function was gotten by optimization of kernel functions, and the experimental data proved that the performance of SVM was improved by the mixed kernel function. If the weighting coefficient was selected properly, the correct rate could even reach to 100%. What’s more, not only a method to construct a new learning machine was given, but also a reference for selecting kernel function was given.

Aiming random and nonlinearity for conveyance machine of rubber belt in mine, a method of fault diagnosis is presented which fusion of fuzzy theory and support vector machine (FSVM). According to the coal mine safety rules of the regulation, the conveyance machine servicing are deduced eleven faults after analyzing practice statistic data, here, we consider some are fuzzy that the statistic data are divided to the normal kind or fault kind, but some are definite that the statistic data possibility are belong to same kind fault, accordingly, the fuzzy support vectors is established. Farther, two kernel functions of FSVM is made for seeking the problem of random and nonlinearity, which are RBF and TANH. According to the random statistic data and the study sample, analyzing the effect of expense and kernel function in selecting different parameters, the unitary constant is ascertained, next, the FSVM kernel function of fault diagnosis multi-class rules are established, then, this method availability is proved using test data and simulation.

Genomic prediction (GP) has revolutionized animal and plant breeding. However, better statistical models that can improve the accuracy of GP are required. For this reason, in this study, we explored the genomic-based prediction performance of a popular machine learning method, the Support Vector Machine (SVM) model. We selected the most suitable kernel function and hyperparameters for the SVM model in eight published genomic data sets on pigs and maize. Next, we compared the SVM model with RBF and the linear kernel functions to the two most commonly used genome-enabled prediction models (GBLUP and BayesR) in terms of prediction accuracy, time, and the memory used. The results showed that the SVM model had the best prediction performance in two of the eight data sets, but in general, the predictions of both models were similar. In terms of time, the SVM model was better than BayesR but worse than GBLUP. In terms of memory, the SVM model was better than GBLUP and worse than BayesR in pig data but the same with BayesR in maize data. According to the results, SVM is a competitive method in animal and plant breeding, and there is no universal prediction model.

The maternal mortality rate during childbirth can be reduced through the efforts of the medical team in determining the childbirth process that must be undertaken immediately. Machine learning in terms of classifying childbirth can be a solution for the medical team in determining the childbirth process. One of the classification methods that can be used is the Support Vector Machine (SVM) method which is able to determine a hyperplane that will form a good decision boundary so that it is able to classify data appropriately. In SVM, there is a kernel function that is useful for solving non-linear classification cases by transforming data to a higher dimension. In this study, four kernel functions will be used; Linear, Radial Basis Function (RBF), Polynomial, and Sigmoid in the classification process of childbirth in order to determine the kernel function that is capable of producing the highest accuracy value. Based on research that has been done, it is obtained that the accuracy value generated by SVM with linear kernel functions is higher than the other kernel functions.
