Publisher: Wiley-Interscience
ISBN:
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 418
Book Description
The neuro-fuzzy approach to pattern recognition-a unique overview Recent years have seen a surge of interest in neuro-fuzzy computing, which combines fuzzy logic, neural networks, and soft computing techniques. This book focuses on the application of this new tool to the rapidly evolving area of pattern recognition. Written by two leaders in neural networks and soft computing research, this landmark work presents a unified, comprehensive treatment of the state of the art in the field. The authors consolidate a wealth of information previously cattered in disparate articles, journals, and edited volumes, explaining both the theory of neuro-fuzzy computing and the latest methodologies for performing different pattern recognition tasks in the neuro-fuzzy network-classification, feature evaluation, rule generation, knowledge extraction, and hybridization. Special emphasis is given to the integration of neuro-fuzzy methods with rough sets and genetic algorithms (GAs) to ensure more efficient recognition systems. Clear, concise, and fully referenced, Neuro-Fuzzy Pattern Recognition features extensive examples and highlights key applications in speech, machine learning, medicine, and forensic science. It is an extremely useful resource for scientists and engineers in laboratories and industry as well as for anyone seeking up-to-date information on the advantages of neuro-fuzzy pattern recognition in new computer technologies.

Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9810248326
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
The field of pattern recognition has seen enormous progress since its beginnings almost 50 years ago. A large number of different approaches have been proposed. Hybrid methods aim at combining the advantages of different paradigms within a single system. Hybrid Methods in Pattern Recognition is a collection of articles describing recent progress in this emerging field. It covers topics such as the combination of neural nets with fuzzy systems or hidden Markov models, neural networks for the processing of symbolic data structures, hybrid methods in data mining, the combination of symbolic and subsymbolic learning, and so on. Also included is recent work on multiple classifier systems. Furthermore, the book deals with applications in on-line and off-line handwriting recognition, remotely sensed image interpretation, fingerprint identification, and automatic text categorization.

Syntactic and Structural Pattern Recognition
Author: Horst Bunke
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9789971505660
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 568
Book Description
This book is currently the only one on this subject containing both introductory material and advanced recent research results. It presents, at one end, fundamental concepts and notations developed in syntactic and structural pattern recognition and at the other, reports on the current state of the art with respect to both methodology and applications. In particular, it includes artificial intelligence related techniques, which are likely to become very important in future pattern recognition.The book consists of individual chapters written by different authors. The chapters are grouped into broader subject areas like “Syntactic Representation and Parsing”, “Structural Representation and Matching”, “Learning”, etc. Each chapter is a self-contained presentation of one particular topic. In order to keep the original flavor of each contribution, no efforts were undertaken to unify the different chapters with respect to notation. Naturally, the self-containedness of the individual chapters results in some redundancy. However, we believe that this handicap is compensated by the fact that each contribution can be read individually without prior study of the preceding chapters. A unification of the spectrum of material covered by the individual chapters is provided by the subject and author index included at the end of the book.

Thinning Methodologies for Pattern Recognition
Author: Ching Y. Suen
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9789810214821
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
Thinning is a technique widely used in the pre-processing stage of a pattern recognition system to compress data and to enhance feature extraction in the subsequent stage. It reduces a digitized pattern to a skeleton so that all resulting branches are 1 pixel thick. The method seems easy at first and has many advantages, however after two decades of intensive research, it has been found to be very challenging due to the difficulties in programming computers to do it.This collection of 15 papers by leading scientists working in the area examines the theoretical and experimental aspects of thinning methodologies. The authors have addressed the problems faced, compared their performance results with others, and assessed the challenges ahead. Researchers will find the volume helpful in shedding light on difficult issues and stimulating further research in the area.
