Neural network ensemble and support vector machine classifiers for the analysis of remotely sensed data: a comparison |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
This paper presents a comparative evaluation between a classification strategy based on the combination of the outputs of a neural (NN) ensemble and the application of Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifiers in the analysis of remotely sensed data. Two sets of experiments have been carried out on a benchmark data set. The first set concerns the application of linear and non linear techniques to the combination of the outputs of a Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) neural network ensemble. In particular, the Bayesian and the error correlation matrix approaches are used for coefficient selection in the linear combination of the network's outputs. A MLP module is used for the non linear outputs combination. The results of linear and non linear combination schemes are compared and discussed versus the performance of SVM classifiers. The comparative analysis evidences that the nonlinear, MLP based, combination provides the best results among the different combination schemes. On the other hand, better performance can be obtained with SVM classifiers. However, the complexity of the SVM training procedure can be considered a limitation for SVMs application to real-world problems. |
