Aggregate features in multisample classification problems
Abstract:
This paper evaluates the classification of multisample problems, such as electromyographic (EMG) data, by making aggregate features available to a per-sample classifier. It is found that the accuracy of this approach is superior to that of traditional methods such as majority vote for this problem. The classification improvements of this method, in conjunction with a confidence measure expressing the per-sample probability of classification failure (i.e., a hazard function) is described and measured. Results are expected to be of interest in clinical decision support system development.

Sampling Methods: Sample Types
Solid samples include a variety of substances, such as sediments from water bodies, soil, metals, and biological tissues. Two standard methods for extracting sediments from water bodies are grab sampling and piston coring. Grab sampling involves using a device to collect a discrete sediment sample from the bottom of a water body with minimal disturbance. Grab samples do not always represent the entire area due to...
