Dynamic classifier selection (DCS) is a classification technique that, for each new sample to be classified, selects and uses the most competent classifier among a set of available ones. We here propose a novel DCS model (R-DCS) based on the robustness of its prediction: the extent to which the classifier can be altered without changing its prediction. In order to define and compute this robustness, we adopt methods from the theory of imprecise probabilities. Additionally, two selection strategies for R-DCS model are presented and are applied on remote sensing images. The experiment results demonstrate that our model successfully incorporates uncertainty with respect to the model parameters without losing the performance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
