Finding shareable informative patterns and optimal coding matrix for multiclass boosting |

---|---|---|
A multiclass classification problem can be reduced to a collection of binary problems using an error-correcting coding matrix that specifies the binary partitions of the classes. The final classifier is an ensemble of base classifiers learned on binary problems and its performance is affected by two major factors: the qualities of the base classifiers and the coding matrix. Previous studies either focus on one of these factors or consider two factors separately. In this paper, we propose a new multiclass boosting algorithm called AdaBoost.SIP that considers both two factors simultaneously. In this algorithm, informative patterns, which are shareable by different classes rather than only discriminative on specific single class, are generated at first. Then the binary partition preferred by each pattern is found by performing stage-wise functional gradient descent on a margin-based cost function. Finally, base classifiers and coding matrix are optimized simultaneously by maximizing the negative gradient of such cost function. The proposed algorithm is applied to scene and event recognition and experimental results show its effectiveness in multiclass classification. |
