Recognition on Finite Set of Events: Bayesian Analysis of Generalization Ability and Classification Tree Pruning

The problem of recognition on finite set of events is considered. The generalization ability of classifiers for this problem is studied within the Bayesian approach. The method for non-uniform prior distribution specification on recognition tasks is suggested. It takes into account the assumed degree of intersection between classes. The results of the analysis are applied for pruning of classification trees.

Practical, Computation Efficient High-Order Neural Network for Rotation and Shift Invariant Pattern Recognition

In this paper, a modification for the high-order neural network (HONN) is presented. Third order networks are considered for achieving translation, rotation and scale invariant pattern recognition. They require however much storage and computation power for the task. The proposed modified HONN takes into account a priori knowledge of the binary patterns that have to be learned, achieving significant gain in computation time and memory requirements. This modification enables the efficient computation of HONNs for image fields of greater that 100 × 100 pixels without any loss of pattern information.

Conditions of Effectiveness of Pattern Recognition Problem Solution Using Logical Level Descriptions of Classes

Earlier the authors have suggested a logical level description of classes which allows to reduce a solution of various pattern recognition problems to solution of a sequence of one-type problems with the less dimension. Here conditions of the effectiveness of the use of such a level descriptions are proposed.

Logic Based Pattern Recognition - Ontology Content (2)

Logic based Pattern Recognition extends the well known similarity models, where the distance measure is the base instrument for recognition. Initial part (1) of current publication in iTECH-06 reduces the logic based recognition models to the reduced disjunctive normal forms of partially defined Boolean functions. This step appears as a way to alternative pattern recognition instruments through combining metric and logic hypotheses and features, leading to studies of logic forms, hypotheses, hierarchies of hypotheses and effective algorithmic solutions. Current part (2) provides probabilistic conclusions on effective recognition by logic means in a model environment of binary attributes.

On the Quality of Decision Functions in Pattern Recognition

The problem of decision functions quality in pattern recognition is considered. An overview of the approaches to the solution of this problem is given. Within the Bayesian framework, we suggest an approach based on the Bayesian interval estimates of quality on a finite set of events.

On Logical Correction of Neural Network Algorithms for Pattern Recognition

The paper is devoted to the description of hybrid pattern recognition method developed by research groups from Russia, Armenia and Spain. The method is based upon logical correction over the set of conventional neural networks. Output matrices of neural networks are processed according to the potentiality principle which allows increasing of recognition reliability.

About New Pattern Recognition Method for the Universal Program System “Recognition”

In this work the new pattern recognition method based on the unification of algebraic and statistical approaches is described. The main point of the method is the voting procedure upon the statistically weighted regularities, which are linear separators in two-dimensional projections of feature space. The report contains brief description of the theoretical foundations of the method, description of its software realization and the results of series of experiments proving its usefulness in practical tasks.
