The Effect of Derived Features on Art Genre Classification with Machine Learning

Abstract

Classification of the artwork according to their genres is being done for years. Although this process was used to be done by art experts before, now artificial intelligence techniques may help people manage this classification task. The algorithms used for classification are already improved, and now they can make classifications and predictions for any kind of genre classification. In this study, two different machine learning algorithms are used on an artwork dataset for genre classification. The primary purpose of this study is to show that the derived features about the artwork have a remarkable effect on correct genre classification. These features are derived from the metadata of the dataset. This metadata contains information about the nationalities and the period that the artist lived. Image filters are also applied to the images but the results show that applying only image filters on the dataset used in the study did not perform well. Instead, adding derived features extracted from the metadata increased the classification performances dramatically.

Machine Learning Based Classification for Spam Detection

“…The learned features are used to detect spam emails and new incoming emails are evaluated according to these features. The advantages of machine learning-based spam systems are that they have high detection rates as they learn from pre-labeled datasets [11]. Furthermore, these systems can improve themselves through dynamic learning processes and become more accurate classifiers over time.…”
