Accurate and Resource-Aware Classification Based on Measurement Data

In this paper, we face the problem of designing accurate decision-making modules in measurement systems that need to be implemented on resource-constrained platforms. We propose a methodology based on multiobjective optimization and genetic algorithms (GAs) for the analysis of support vector machine (SVM) solutions in the classification error-complexity space. Specific criteria for the choice of optimal SVM classifiers and experimental results on both real and synthetic data will also be discussed. © 2008 IEEE.
