Title
Decision boundary feature extraction for nonparametric classification
Abstract
A new feature extraction algorithm based on decision boundaries for nonparametric classifiers is proposed. It is noted that feature extraction for pattern recognition is equivalent to retaining discriminantly informative features, and a discriminantly informative feature is related to the decision boundary. Since nonparametric classifiers do not define decision boundaries in analytic form, the decision boundary and normal vectors must be estimated numerically. A procedure to extract discriminantly informative features based on a decision boundary for nonparametric classification is proposed. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm finds effective features for the nonparametric classifier with Parzen density estimation
