multiclass-classification's Introduction

Multi-class Classification

In this repository implementation of some multiclass classification algorithms have been provided. These algorithms have been designed for multi-class input labels except Bayesian Regression which is a binary implementation and uses one-vs-rest strategy. Below you can find the list of the implemented algorithms.

multinomial Logistic Regression
Weighted Logistic Regression
Bayesian Logistic Regression (Two classes using one-vs-rest)
Gaussian Generative classification
Gaussian Naive Bayes Classification
Weighted Voting (an ensemble learning method)

Results

Three datasets, PIE, VOC, MSRC was used for evaluating the code. Below you can find the result of each algorithm using 5-folding.

1- PIE Dataset

Algo/measure	Precision	Recall	F1
Logistic Regression	0.963	0.962	0.96
Weighted Log Reg	0.72	0.7	0.71
Bayesian Log Reg	0.95	0.93	0.93
Gaussian Generative	0.971	0.967	0.969
Generative Naive Bayes	0.96	0.95	0.95

2- MSRC Dataset

Algo/measure	Precision	Recall	F1
Logistic Regression	0.78	0.78	0.78
Weighted Log Reg	0.18	0.18	0.18
Bayesian Log Reg	0.64	0.67	0.65
Gaussian Generative	0.79	0.74	0.76
Generative Naive Bayes	0.89	0.19	0.31

3- VOC Dataset

Algo/measure	Precision	Recall	F1
Logistic Regression	0.43	0.37	0.40
Weighted Log Reg	0.17	0.18	0.17
Bayesian Log Reg	0.34	0.34	0.34
Gaussian Generative	0.45	0.38	0.41
Generative Naive Bayes	0.86	0.2	0.29

The ROC plot for these algorithms has been provided below.

How to run

1- add measure function folder (if you cant wait for "not found in the current folder" error and click on "add its folder to the MATLAB path")

2- Read the features and labels into fts and labels variables;

3- Use any of the ML algorithms just like the way used in main.m

4- run main.m

sources

Altought many sources online and offline has been used, Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning by Bishop (Springer) has been the most significant.
