This book provides a unified approach for developing a fuzzy classifier and explains the advantages and disadvantages of different classifiers through extensive performance evaluation of real data sets. It thus offers new learning paradigms for analyzing neural networks and fuzzy systems, while training fuzzy classifiers. Function approximation is also treated and function approximators are compared.

Support vector machines (SVMs), were originally formulated for two-class classification problems, and have been accepted as a powerful tool for developing pattern classification and function approximations systems. This book provides a unique perspective of the state of the art in SVMs by taking the only approach that focuses on classification rather than covering the theoretical aspects. The book clarifies the characteristics of two-class SVMs through their extensive analysis, presents various useful architectures for multiclass classification and function approximation problems, and discusses kernel methods for improving generalization ability of conventional neural networks and fuzzy systems. Ample illustrations, examples and computer experiments are included to help readers understand the new ideas and their usefulness. This book supplies a comprehensive resource for the use of SVMs in pattern classification and will be invaluable reading for researchers, developers & students in academia and industry.

This work reviews the state of the art in SVM and perceptron classifiers. A Support Vector Machine (SVM) is easily the most popular tool for dealing with a variety of machine-learning tasks, including classification. SVMs are associated with maximizing the margin between two classes. The concerned optimization problem is a convex optimization guaranteeing a globally optimal solution. The weight vector associated with SVM is obtained by a linear combination of some of the boundary and noisy vectors. Further, when the data are not linearly separable, tuning the coefficient of the regularization term becomes crucial. Even though SVMs have popularized the kernel trick, in most of the practical applications that are high-dimensional, linear SVMs are popularly used. The text examines applications to social and information networks. The work also discusses another popular linear classifier, the perceptron, and compares its performance with that of the SVM in different application areas.>
