Description
Summary:This thesis addressed a type of imbalanced data problem encountered in many biomedical applications where one category of data is compactly clustered and the other category of data is scattered in the input space. A new Hybrid Kernel Machine Ensemble (HKME) is proposed to address this problem by integrating a two-class discriminative Support Vector Machine (SVM) and a one-class recognition-based SVM.
