Book Artificial Neural Networks and Statistical Pattern Recognition

Download or read book Artificial Neural Networks and Statistical Pattern Recognition written by I.K. Sethi and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-06-28 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the growing complexity of pattern recognition related problems being solved using Artificial Neural Networks, many ANN researchers are grappling with design issues such as the size of the network, the number of training patterns, and performance assessment and bounds. These researchers are continually rediscovering that many learning procedures lack the scaling property; the procedures simply fail, or yield unsatisfactory results when applied to problems of bigger size. Phenomena like these are very familiar to researchers in statistical pattern recognition (SPR), where the curse of dimensionality is a well-known dilemma. Issues related to the training and test sample sizes, feature space dimensionality, and the discriminatory power of different classifier types have all been extensively studied in the SPR literature. It appears however that many ANN researchers looking at pattern recognition problems are not aware of the ties between their field and SPR, and are therefore unable to successfully exploit work that has already been done in SPR. Similarly, many pattern recognition and computer vision researchers do not realize the potential of the ANN approach to solve problems such as feature extraction, segmentation, and object recognition. The present volume is designed as a contribution to the greater interaction between the ANN and SPR research communities.

Book Pattern Recognition Approach to Data Interpretation

Download or read book Pattern Recognition Approach to Data Interpretation written by Diane Wolff and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An attempt is made in this book to give scientists a detailed working knowledge of the powerful mathematical tools available to aid in data interpretation, especially when con fronted with large data sets incorporating many parameters. A minimal amount of com puter knowledge is necessary for successful applications, and we have tried conscien tiously to provide this in the appropriate sections and references. Scientific data are now being produced at rates not believed possible ten years ago. A major goal in any sci entific investigation should be to obtain a critical evaluation of the data generated in a set of experiments in order to extract whatever useful scientific information may be present. Very often, the large number of measurements present in the data set does not make this an easy task. The goals of this book are thus fourfold. The first is to create a useful reference on the applications of these statistical pattern recognition methods to the sciences. The majority of our discussions center around the fields of chemistry, geology, environmen tal sciences, physics, and the biological and medical sciences. In Chapter IV a section is devoted to each of these fields. Since the applications of pattern recognition tech niques are essentially unlimited, restricted only by the outer limitations of.

Download or read book Face Recognition written by Harry Wechsler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 645 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI) on Face Recognition: From Theory to Applications took place in Stirling, Scotland, UK, from June 23 through July 4, 1997. The meeting brought together 95 participants (including 18 invited lecturers) from 22 countries. The lecturers are leading researchers from academia, govemment, and industry from allover the world. The lecturers presented an encompassing view of face recognition, and identified trends for future developments and the means for implementing robust face recognition systems. The scientific programme consisted of invited lectures, three panels, and (oral and poster) presentations from students attending the AS!. As a result of lively interactions between the participants, the following topics emerged as major themes of the meeting: (i) human processing of face recognition and its relevance to forensic systems, (ii) face coding, (iii) connectionist methods and support vector machines (SVM), (iv) hybrid methods for face recognition, and (v) predictive learning and performance evaluation. The goals of the panels were to provide links among the lectures and to emphasis the themes of the meeting. The topics of the panels were: (i) How the human visual system processes faces, (ii) Issues in applying face recognition: data bases, evaluation and systems, and (iii) Classification issues involved in face recognition. The presentations made by students gave them an opportunity to receive feedback from the invited lecturers and suggestions for future work.

Book Instruction to Statistical Pattern Recognition

Download or read book Instruction to Statistical Pattern Recognition written by Keinosuke Fukunaga and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1972-01-01 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to Statistical Pattern Recognition introduces the reader to statistical pattern recognition, with emphasis on statistical decision and estimation. Pattern recognition problems are discussed in terms of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Comprised of 11 chapters, this book opens with an overview of the formulation of pattern recognition problems. The next chapter is devoted to linear algebra, with particular reference to the properties of random variables and vectors. Hypothesis testing and parameter estimation are then discussed, along with error probability estimation and linear classifiers. The following chapters focus on successive approaches where the classifier is adaptively adjusted each time one sample is observed; feature selection and linear mapping for one distribution and multidistributions; and problems of nonlinear mapping. The final chapter describes a clustering algorithm and considers criteria for both parametric and nonparametric clustering. This monograph will serve as a text for the introductory courses of pattern recognition as well as a reference book for practitioners in the fields of mathematics and statistics.

This book was released on 2002-05-31 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph explores the close relationship of variouswell-known pattern recognition problems that have so far beenconsidered independent. These relationships became apparent with thediscovery of formal procedures for addressing known problems and theirgeneralisations. The generalised problem formulations were analysedmathematically and unified algorithms were found. The main scientificcontribution of this book is the unification of two main streams inpattern recognition - the statistical one and the structuralone. The material is presented in the form of ten lectures, each ofwhich concludes with a discussion with a student."Audience: " The book is intended for both researchers and studentswho work in knowledge management and organisation, machine learning, statistics, and symbolic and algebraic manipulations. It provides newviews and numerous original results in their field. Written in aneasily accessible style, it introduces the basic building blocks ofpattern recognition, demonstrates the beauty and the pitfalls ofscientific research, and encourages good habits in readingmathematical text.

Book Statistical and Neural Classifiers

Download or read book Statistical and Neural Classifiers written by Sarunas Raudys and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001-01-29 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classification of patterns is an important area of research which is central to all pattern recognition fields, including speech, image, robotics, and data analysis. Neural networks have been used successfully in a number of these fields, but so far their application has been based on a 'black box approach' with no real understanding of how they work. In this book, Sarunas Raudys - an internationally respected researcher in the area - provides an excellent mathematical and applied introduction to how neural network classifiers work and how they should be used.. .
