One of the well known risks of large margin training methods, such as boosting and support vector machines (SVMs), is their sensitivity to outliers. These risks are normally mitig...
This paper proposes a novel nonlinear discriminant analysis method named by Kernerlized Maximum Average Margin Criterion (KMAMC), which has combined the idea of Support Vector Mac...
After segmenting candidate exudates regions in colour retinal images we present and compare two methods for their classification. The Neural Network based approach performs margina...

Support vector machines have gotten wide acceptance for their high generalization ability for real world applications. But the major drawback is slow training for classification p...
We propose a classification method based on a decision tree whose nodes consist of linear Support Vector Machines (SVMs). Each node defines a decision hyperplane that classifies p...
