Based on the global features, the local information of different kinds of features is utilized. Both the global and the local features are combined together. Moreover, the multiple kernel learning method is adopted. The global features and each kind of local feature are respectively associated with a kernel, and all these kernels are added together with different weights to obtain a mixed kernel for nonlinear mapping. In the reproducing kernel Hilbert space, different kinds of emotional features can be easily classified. In the experiments, the popular Berlin dataset is used, and the optimal parameters of the global and the local kernels are determined by cross-validation. After computing using multiple kernel learning, the weights of all the kernels are obtained, which shows that the formant and intensity features play a key role in speech emotion recognition. The classification results show that the recognition rate is 78. 74% by using the global kernel, and it is 81.10% by using the proposed method, which demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

Based on image multi-feature fusion and support vector machine, a new method to identify flow regime in two-phase flow was presented. Firstly, gas-liquid two-phase flow images including bub- bly flow, plug flow, slug flow, stratified flow, wavy flow, annular flow and mist flow were captured by digital high speed video systems in the horizontal tube. The image moment invariants and gray level co-occurrence matrix texture features were extracted using image processing techniques. To improve the performance of a multiple classifier system, the rough sets theory was used for reducing the inessential factors. Furthermore, the support vector machine was trained by using these eigenvectors to reduce the dimension as flow regime samples, and the flow regime intelligent identification was realized. The test results showed that image features which were reduced with the rough sets theory could excellently reflect the difference between seven typical flow regimes, and successful training the support vector machine could quickly and accurately identify seven typical flow regimes of gas-liquid two-phase flow in the horizontal tube. Image multi-feature fusion method provided a new way to identify the gas-liquid two-phase flow, and achieved higher identification ability than that of single characteristic. The overall identification accuracy was 100%, and an estimate of the image processing time was 8 ms for online flow regime identification.展开更多
