In view of the support vectors of ε-SVR that are not distributed in the ε belt and only located on the outskirts of the ε belt, a novel algorithm to construct ε-SVR of a large-scale training sample set is proposed in this paper. It computes firstly the ε-SVR hyper-plane of a small training sample set and the distances d of all samples to the hyperplane, then deletes the samples not in field ε ≤ d ≤ dmax and searches SVs gradually in the scope ε ≤ d ≤ dmax, and trains step-by-step the final ε-SVR. Finally, it analyzes the time complexity of the algorithm, and verifies its convergence in the theory and tests its efficiency by the simulation.
Visual tracking has been studied for several decades but continues to draw significant attention because of its critical role in many applications. This letter handles the problem of fixed template size in Kernelized Correlation Filter (KCF) tracker with no significant decrease in the speed. Extensive experiments are performed on the new OTB dataset.
The conventional fuzzy C-means (FCM) is sensitive to the initial cluster centers and outliers, which may cause the centers deviate from the real centers when the algorithm converges. To improve the performance of FCM, a method of initializing the cluster centers based on probabilistic suppression is proposed and an improved local outlier factor is integrated into the model of FCM. Firstly, the probability of an object as cluster center is defined by its local density, and all initial centers are obtained by the cluster center’s probability and probability suppression function incrementally. Next, an improved local outlier factor is reconstructed according to the local distribution of an object, and its reciprocal is regarded as the contribution degree of an object to cluster center. Then, the improved local outlier factor is integrated into FCM to alleviate the negative effect caused by outliers. Finally, experiments on synthetic and real-world datasets are provided to demonstrate the clustering performance and anti-noise ability of proposed method.
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.
