In this paper, we propose an enhanced associative classification method by integrating the dynamic property in the process of associative classification. In the proposed method, we employ a support vector machine（SVM） based method to refine the discovered emerging ~equent patterns for classification rule extension for class label prediction. The empirical study shows that our method can be used to classify increasing resources efficiently and effectively.
Automatic image annotation(AIA)has become an important and challenging problem in computer vision due to the existence of semantic gap.In this paper,a novel support vector machine with mixture of kernels(SVM-MK)for automatic image annotation is proposed.On one hand,the combined global and local block-based image features are extracted in order to reflect the intrinsic content of images as complete as possible.On the other hand,SVM-MK is constructed to shoot for better annotating performance.Experimental results on Corel dataset show that the proposed image feature representation method as well as automatic image annotation classifier,SVM-MK,can achieve higher annotating accuracy than SVM with any single kernel and mi-SVM for semantic image annotation.
A novel image auto-annotation method is presented based on probabilistic latent semantic analysis(PLSA) model and multiple Markov random fields(MRF).A PLSA model with asymmetric modalities is first constructed to estimate the joint probability between images and semantic concepts,then a subgraph is extracted served as the corresponding structure of Markov random fields and inference over it is performed by the iterative conditional modes so as to capture the final annotation for the image.The novelty of our method mainly lies in two aspects:exploiting PLSA to estimate the joint probability between images and semantic concepts as well as multiple MRF to further explore the semantic context among keywords for accurate image annotation.To demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach,an experiment on the Corel5 k dataset is conducted and its results are compared favorably with the current state-of-the-art approaches.
