Abstract: Multi-classification is the key issue in target recognition. The dichotomies so far is mostly designed for binary classification, which cannot meet the requirement of the multi-class target recognition. To solve this problem, the ECOC(Error Correcting Output Codes) is used to decompose a complex multi-classification problem into a set of binary classifications. At the same time, a decoding strategy based on least square method is proposed to fusion the dichotomies’ results. The experiments based on UCI and three kinds of different HRRPs validate that compared to the state-of-the-art dichotomies, the approach presented has better classification performance.

摘要: 多类分类是目标识别中必须面对的一个关键问题,现有分类器大都为二分器,无法满足对多类目标进行分类,为此,提出利用纠错输出编码方法对多类问题进行分解,即把多类问题转化成二类问题;同时讨论一种基于最小二乘法对二分器结果进行融合的策略。实验分别对UCI数据集和三种一维距离像数据集进行测试,结果表明与经典的多分类器相比,提出的多类分类策略有较高的分类正确率。
