Dual-tree Complex Wavelet Support Vector Machine

G. Y. Chen

Abstract


In this paper, we propose a new support vector machine (SVM) kernel using the dual-tree complex wavelet transform. We have proven that this kernel is an admissible support vector kernel. The reason why we use the dual-tree complex wavelet transform is because it satisfies the approximate shift invariant property, which is very important in signal processing. Experiments on signal regression show that this method is comparable to or even better than the existing SVM function regression with the scalar wavelet kernel, the Gaussian kernel, and the exponential radial basis function kernel. We can apply this SVM kernel to other practical applications as well, e.g., pattern recognition.

Disclaimer/Regarding indexing issue:

We have provided the online access of all issues and papers to the indexing agencies (as given on journal web site). It’s depend on indexing agencies when, how and what manner they can index or not. Hence, we like to inform that on the basis of earlier indexing, we can’t predict the today or future indexing policy of third party (i.e. indexing agencies) as they have right to discontinue any journal at any time without prior information to the journal. So, please neither sends any question nor expects any answer from us on the behalf of third party i.e. indexing agencies.Hence, we will not issue any certificate or letter for indexing issue. Our role is just to provide the online access to them. So we do properly this and one can visit indexing agencies website to get the authentic information. Also: DOI is paid service which provided by a third party. We never mentioned that we go for this for our any journal. However, journal have no objection if author go directly for this paid DOI service.
