FIX’s hierarchical classifier. In the data layer, full, feature-selected, temporal, spatial, temporal-feature-selected and spatial-feature-selected datasets (
,
,
,
,
and
, respectively), are each classified by 5 Classifiers. These Classifiers consist of k-NN, SVMr (SVM with RBF kernel), SVMp (SVM with polynomial kernel), SVMl (linear SVM) and decision tree (simply called tree here). The result is a vector of 30 (5 × 6) probabilities (0 and 1 denoting perfect noise and perfect signal, respectively), which is the input to a fusion-layer classifier, whose output is the probability of IC being signal/noise.
