This algorithm integrates the weight vector from the reliefF into SVM-RFE method. In this method, the reliefF filters out many noisy features in the first stage. Then the new ranking criterion based on SVM-RFE method is applied to obtain the final feature subset. The SVM classifier is used to evaluate the final image classification accuracy. Experimental results show that our proposed relief- SVM-RFE algorithm can achieve significant improvements for feature selection in image classification.展开更多

In such a situation classifiers such as decision trees and Na?ve Bayesian that generalize over the data are not the proper choice as classification methods. Case-based classifiers that can work on the samples seen so far are more appropriate for such a task. We propose to calculate the contingency table and class specific evaluation measures despite the overall accuracy for evaluation purposes of classifiers for these specific data characteristics. We evaluate the different options of our case-based classifier and compare the perform-ance to decision trees and Na?ve Bayesian. Finally, we give an outlook for further work.展开更多

A group of experiments has been designed to investigate the influence of various NLP-based features to the performance of the system,especially the semantic features. Optimal parameter settings regarding with SVM models,including kernel functions,margin parameter of SVM model and the context window size,have been explored through experiments as well.Findings: The SVM-based multi-classification approach has been proved to be effective for the NER task. This work shows that NLP-based features are of great importance in datadriven NE recognition,particularly the semantic features. The study indicates that higher order kernel function may not be desirable for the specific classification problem in practical application. The simple linear-kernel SVM model performed better in this case. Moreover,the modified SVM models with uneven margin parameter are more common and flexible,which have been proved to solve the imbalanced data problem better.Research limitations/implications: The SVM-based approach for NER problem is only proved to be effective on limited experiment data. Further research need to be conducted on the large batch of real Web data. In addition,the performance of the NER system need be tested when incorporated into a complete IE framework.Originality/value: The specially designed experiments make it feasible to fully explore the characters of the data and obtain the optimal parameter settings for the NER task,leading to a preferable rate in recall,precision and F1measures. The overall system performance(F1value) for all types of name entities can achieve above 88.6%,which can meet the requirements for the practical application.展开更多
