Non-linear Multiclass SVM Classification Optimization using Large Datasets of Geometric Motif Image

Abstract

Support Vector Machine (SVM) with Radial Basis Functions (RBF) kernel is one of the methods frequently applied to nonlinear multiclass image classification. To overcome some constraints in the form of a large number of image datasets divided into nonlinear multiclass, there three stages of SVM-RBF classification process carried out i.e. 1) Determining the algorithms of feature extraction and feature value dimensions used, 2) Determining the appropriate kernel and parameter values, and 3) Using correct multiclass method for the training and testing processes. The OaO, OaA, and DAGSVM multi-class methods were tested on a large dataset of batik motif images whose geometric motifs with a variety of patterns and colors in each class and containing similar patterns in the motifs between the classes. DAGSVM has the advantage in classification accuracy value, i.e. 91%, but it takes longer during the training and testing processes.
