A Mixed Learning Strategy for Finding Typical Testors in Large Datasets
[chapter]
2015
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
This paper presents a mixed, global and local, learning strategy for finding typical testors in large datasets. The goal of the proposed strategy is to allow any search algorithm to achieve the most significant reduction possible in the search space of a typical testor-finding problem. The strategy is based on a trivial classifier which partitions the search space into four distinct classes and allows the assessment of each feature subset within it. Each class is handled by slightly different

... arning actions, and induces a different reduction in the search-space of a problem. Any typical testor-finding algorithm, whether deterministic or metaheuristc, can be adapted to incorporate the proposed strategy and can take advantage of the learned information in diverse manners.
Multi-level Modeling of Manuscripts for Authorship Identification with Collective Decision Systems
[chapter]
2012
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
In the context of forensic and criminalistics studies the problem of identifying the author of a manuscript is generally expressed as a supervisedclassification problem. In this paper a new approach for modeling a manuscript at the word and text line levels is presented. This new approach introduces an eclectic paradigm between texture-related and structure-related modeling approaches. Compared to previously published works, the proposed method significantly reduces the number and complexity of

Designing New CAPTCHA Models Based on the Cognitive Abilities of Artificial Agents
2017
Research in Computing Science
A CAPTCHA is a program that allows or denies access to services by generating and grading test that humans can pass but current computer programs cannot. Captchas are generally used to protect free web services from automated programs. Also, they can provide an idea of which fields in artificial intelligence are the most explored and which could be researched in the near future. Most of the tests that are based on text recognition have been broken by optical character recognition (OCR)

... s while those based on images are vulnerable to machine learning attacks. Humans make use of cognitive abilities to carry out tasks in daily life, even if they are not conscious which ones or how they use them. The current state of technology is still not enough to reproduce some human cognitive abilities, and the identification of those abilities is the basis for the design of new CAPTCHA models. In this paper we introduce seven new models of CAPTCHA to test some cognitive abilities that are supposed to be beyond the capabilities of artificial agents. We use some APIs to proof that images used in the proposals are extremely difficult to be recognized by artificial agents.
Proposal for a Unified Methodology for Evaluating Supervised and Non-supervised Classification Algorithms
[chapter]
2006
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
There is presently no unified methodology that allows the evaluation of supervised and non-supervised classification algorithms. Supervised problems are evaluated through Quality Functions that require a previously known solution for the problem, while non-supervised problems are evaluated through several Structural Indexes that do not evaluate the classification algorithm by using the same pattern similarity criteria embedded in the classification algorithm. In both cases, a lot of useful

... mation remains hidden or is not considered by the evaluation method, such as the quality of the supervision sample or the structural change generated by the classification algorithm on the sample. This paper proposes a unified methodology to evaluate classification problems of both kinds, that offers the possibility of making comparative evaluations and yields a larger amount of information to the evaluator about the quality of the initial sample, when it exists, and regarding the change produced by the classification algorithm.
A Theoretical and Practical Framework for Assessing the Computational Behavior of Typical Testor-Finding Algorithms
[chapter]
2013
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Although the general relevance of Testor Theory as the theoretical ground for useful feature selection procedures is well known, there are no practical means, nor any standard methodologies, for assessing the behavior of a testor-finding algorithm when faced with specific circumstances. In this work, we present a practical framework, with proven theoretical foundation, for assessing the behavior of both deterministic and meta-heuristic testor-finding algorithms when faced with specific phenomena.

Digital Image-based Inductive Characterization and Classification for Improving the Quality Inspection of Diverse Food Products
2013
Research in Computing Science
With the increasingly demanding international regulations for import and export of food products, as well as with the increased awareness and sophistication of consumers, the food industry needs accurate, fast and efficient quality inspection means. Each producer seeks to ensure that their products satisfy all consumer's expectations and that the appropriate quality level of each product is offered and sold to each different socio-economic consumer group. This paper presents three study cases

... ere digital image analysis and inductive characterization techniques have been successfully applied to improve the quality inspection process. Three very different and unrelated basic food products are studied: Hass Avocado, Manila Mango and Corn Tortillas. Each one of these products has some special and particular features that complicate the quality inspection process, but each of these products is also very important in economical terms for the sheer volume of their production and marketing. Experimental results of each case shows that the general technique has great accuracy and significantly lower costs.
Assessing the Quality Level of Corn Tortillas with Inductive Characterization and Digital Image Analysis
[chapter]
2013
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Characterization and classification of corn tortillas turns out to be an extremely delicate and difficult process when dealing with regulations for import/export and production process certification. In this paper we present a method for non-invasive feature extraction, based on digital imaging and a series of procedures to characterize different qualities of corn tortillas for their later classification. The novelty in this whole method lies in the extremely reduced set of features required

... the characterization with only geometrical and color features. Nonetheless, this set of features can assess diverse quality elements like the homogeneity of the baking process and others alike. Experimental results on a sample batch of 600 tortillas show the presented method to be around 95% effective.
Efficiently Finding the Optimum Number of Clusters in a Dataset with a New Hybrid Cellular Evolutionary Algorithm

Journal of Computacion y Sistemas
A challenge in hybrid evolutionary algorithms is to employ efficient strategies to cover all the search space, applying local search only in actually promising search areas; on the other hand, clustering algorithms, a fundamental base for data mining procedures and learning techniques, suffer from the lack of efficient methods for determining the optimal number of clusters to be found in an arbitrary dataset.

A New Efficient Entropy Population-Merging Parallel Model for Evolutionary Algorithms
2017
International Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems
In this paper a coarse-grain execution model for evolutionary algorithms is proposed and used for solving numerical and combinatorial optimization problems. This model does not use migration as the solution dispersion mechanism, in its place a more efficient population-merging mechanism is used that dynamically reduces the population size as well as the total number of parallel evolving populations. Even more relevant is the fact that the proposed model incorporates an entropy measure to

Assigning Library of Congress Classification Codes to Books Based Only on their Titles
2010
Informatica
unpublished
Many publishers follow the Library of Congress Classification (LCC) scheme to indicate a classification code on the first pages of their books. This is useful for many libraries worldwide because it makes possible to search and retrieve books by content type, and this scheme has become a de facto standard. However, not every book has been pre-classified by the publisher; in particular, in many universities, new dissertations have to be classified manually. Although there are many systems

... le for automatic text classification, all of them use extensive information which is not always available, such as the index, abstract, or even the whole content of the work. In this work, we present our experiments on supervised classification of books by using only their title, which would allow massive automatic indexing. We propose a new text comparison measure, which mixes two well-known text classification techniques: the Lesk voting scheme and the Term Frequency (TF). In addition, we experiment with different weighing as well as logical-combinatorial methods such as ALVOT in order to determine the contribution of the title in the correct classification. We found this contribution to be approximately one third, as we correctly classified 36% (on average by each branch) of 122,431 previously unseen titles (in total) upon training with 489,726 samples (in total) of one major branch (Q) of the LCC catalogue.
