In order to demonstrate its better robustness to the complex and nonlinear variations of real face images, such as illumination, facial expression, scale and pose variations, experiments are carried out on the Olivetti Research Laboratory, Yale and self-built face databases. The results indicate that in contrast to kernel principal component analysis and kernel linear discriminant analysis, the method can achieve lower （7%） error rate using only a very small set of features. Furthermore, a new corrected kernel model is proposed to improve the recognition performance. Experimental results confirm its superiority （1% in terms of recognition rate） to other polynomial kernel models.展开更多

But it is difficult to handle the high nonlinear problems, such as changes of large viewpoint and illumination. In order to overcome these problems, kernel discriminant analysis for face recognition is presented. This approach adopts the kernel functions to replace the dot products of nonlinear mapping in the high dimensional feature space, and then the nonlinear problem can be solved in the input space conveniently without explicit mapping.

A robust nonparametric kernel discriminant classification function, which is able to address this challenge, has been developed and the misclassification rates computed for various bandwidth matrices. A comparison with existing parametric classification functions such as the linear discriminant and quadratic discriminant is conducted to evaluate the performance of this classification function using simulated datasets. The results presented in this paper show good performance in terms of misclassification rates for the kernel discriminant classifier when the correct bandwidth is selected as compared to other identified existing classifiers. In this regard, the study recommends the use of the proposed kernel discriminant classification rule when one wishes to classify units into one of several categories or population groups where parametric classifiers might not be applicable.展开更多

These techniques increase the class separability and optimize the clustering procedure. Speaker-dependent (SD) and speaker-independent (SI) experiments are performed to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. The experiment results show that the proposed method is capable of reaching the word error rate of 3.76% in SD case and 6.60 % in SI case. Such a system can be suitable for being embedded in personal digital assistant(PDA), mobile phone and so on to perform voice controlling such as digit dialing, calculating, etc.展开更多

In the wavenumber of 4348 cm-1 to 9091 cm-1, the overall correct classification rate of kernel partial least squares-discriminant analysis was 100% for training set, and 100% for test set, with the lowest concentration detected malathion residues in water being 1 μg·ml-1. Kernel partial least squares-discriminant analysis was able to have a good performance in classifying data in nonlinear systems. It was inferred that Near-infrared spectroscopy coupled with the kernel partial least squares-discriminant analysis had a potential in rapid screening other pesticide residues in water.展开更多

These include the Pemba, Shona, Galjeel, people of Burundi and Rwanda descent, and children born in Kenya to British Overseas Citizens after 1983. Frequently, they are not only undocumented but also often overlooked and not included in National Administrative Registers. Accordingly, find it hard to participate in Social and Economic Affairs. There has been a major push by UNHCR and international partners to “map” the size of stateless populations and their demographic profile, as well as causes, potential solutions and human rights situation. One of the requirements by the UNHCR in their push is for countries to find a potential solution to statelessness which starts with classifying/associating a person from these communities to a particular local community that is recognized in Kenya. This paper addresses this problem by adopting a Robust Nonparametric Kernel Discriminant function to correctly classify the stateless communities in Kenya and compare the performance of this method with the existing techniques through their classification rates. This is because Non-parametric functions have proven to be more robust and useful especially when there exists auxiliary information which can be used to increase precision. The findings from this paper indicate that Nonparametric discriminant classifiers provide a good classification method for classifying the stateless communities in Kenya. This is because they exhibit lower classification rates compared to the parametric methods such as Linear and Quadratic discriminant functions. In addition, the finding shows that based on certain similarities in characteristics that exist in these communities that surround the Pemba Community, the Pemba community can be classified as Giriama or Rabai in which they seem to have a strong link. In this regard, the study recommends the use of the Kernel discriminant classifiers in classifying the stateless persons and that the Government of Kenya consider integrating/recognizing the Pemba community into Giriama or Rabai so that they can be issued with the National Identification Cards and be recognized as Kenyans.展开更多

The FDA method is first used for quality monitoring. If the process is un-der normal condition, then kernel regression is further used for quality prediction and estimation. If faults have oc-curred, the contribution plot in the fault feature direction is used for fault diagnosis. The proposed method can ef-fectively detect the fault and has better ability to predict the response variables than principle component regression (PCR) and partial least squares (PLS). Application results to the industrial fluid catalytic cracking unit (FCCU) show the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多
