TRANSFORMING MEASUREMENT DATA FOR CLASSIFICATION LEARNING

摘要

A system (600), apparatus (500), and method is provided for a combined transformation of measurement data so that the transformed data are suitable for input by pattern classification learning methods. Sensitivity of transformed data is reduced in the unreliable region while it is largely unchanged or enhanced everywhere else. A Gaussian transform is combined with a sigmoid function, using a combined transform module (502) in the apparatus (500) and system (600) to achieve the sensitivity reduction. A user can direct the processing via a user control subsystem (604) of the system (600) and by providing user analysis input (508) input to the apparatus (500).
