Abstract: With traditional machine learning methods, one may spends a lot of time adjusting the optimal parameters in tackling the problem of protein fold recognition. A new optimization method of ELM for classification is used to recognize the protein fold, one can only adjusts few parameters to achieve good enough testing accuracy. Compared to SVM and RVM, better generalization performance can be obtained by ELMC, in the comparison of training time in finding the optimal solution, ELMC is 35 times faster than SVM averagely and is 12 times faster than RVM averagely.

Key words: protein fold recognition, optimization method of ELM for classification, multi-class classification

摘要： 传统的机器学习方法在处理蛋白质折叠类型识别问题时需要花费大量的时间来调节最佳参数，利用一种新的极限学习机（Extreme Learning Machine，ELM）分类优化方法（Extreme Learning Machine for Classification，ELMC）对蛋白质折叠进行识别，仅需调节很少的参数值就可达到很好的测试精度。与支持向量机（Support Vector Machine，SVM）和推荐相关向量机（Relevance Vector Machine，RVM）相比，ELMC能获得更好的泛化性能，而且在寻找最优解的训练时间比较上，ELMC比SVM平均要快35倍，比RVM要快12倍。
