Fusing classifiers’ decisions can improve the performance of a pattern recognition system. Many applications areas have adopted the methods of multiple classifier fusion to increase the classification accuracy in the recognition process. From fully considering the classifier performance differences and the training sample information, a multiple classifier fusion algorithm using weighted decision templates is proposed in this paper. The algorithm uses a statistical vector to measure the classifier’s performance and makes a weighed transform on each classifier according to the reliability of its output. To make a decision, the information in the training samples around an input sample is used by thek-nearest-neighbor rule if the algorithm evaluates the sample as being highly likely to be misclassified. An experimental comparison was performed on 15 data sets from the KDD’99, UCI, and ELENA databases. The experimental results indicate that the algorithm can achieve better classification performance. Next, the algorithm was applied to cataract grading in the cataract ultrasonic phacoemulsification operation. The application result indicates that the proposed algorithm is effective and can meet the practical requirements of the operation.

Aiming at solving the difficulty of modeling on spatial coherence, complete feature extraction, and sparse representation in hyperspectral image classification, a joint sparse representation classification method is investigated by flexible patches sampling of superpixels. First, the principal component analysis and total variation diffusion are employed to form the pseudo color image for simplifying superpixels computing with (simple linear iterative clustering) SLIC model. Then, we design a joint sparse recovery model by sampling overcomplete patches of superpixels to estimate joint sparse characteristics of test pixel, which are carried out on the orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm. At last, the pixel is labeled according to the minimum distance constraint for final classification based on the joint sparse coefficients and structured dictionary. Experiments conducted on two real hyperspectral datasets show the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed method.
