NAME
pkfsann - feature selection for nn classifier
SYNOPSIS
pkfsann -t training -n number [options] [advanced options]
DESCRIPTION
Classification problems dealing with high dimensional input data can be challenging due to
the Hughes phenomenon. Hyperspectral data, for instance, can have hundreds of spectral
bands and require special attention when being classified. In particular when limited
training data are available, the classification of such data can be problematic without
reducing the dimension.
pkfsann implements a number of feature selection techniques, among which a sequential
floating forward search (SFFS). Also consider the SVM classifier implemented in pksvm(1),
which has been shown to be more robust to this type of problem than others.
OPTIONS
-t filename, --training filename
training vector file. A single vector file contains all training features (must be
set as: B0, B1, B2,...) for all classes (class numbers identified by label option).
Use multiple training files for bootstrap aggregation (alternative to the bag and
bsize options, where a random subset is taken from a single training file)
-n number, --nf number
number of features to select (0 to select optimal number, see also --ecost option)
-i filename, --input filename
input test set (leave empty to perform a cross validation based on training only)
-v level, --verbose level
set to: 0 (results only), 1 (confusion matrix), 2 (debug)
Advanced options
-tln layer, --tln layer
training layer name(s)
-label attribute, --label attribute
identifier for class label in training vector file. (default: label)
--balance size
balance the input data to this number of samples for each class (default: 0)
-random, --random
in case of balance, randomize input data
-min number, --min number
if number of training pixels is less then min, do not take this class into account
-b band, --band band
band index (starting from 0, either use band option or use start to end)
-sband band, --startband band
start band sequence number
-eband band, --endband band
end band sequence number
-offset value, --offset value
offset value for each spectral band input features:
refl[band]=(DN[band]-offset[band])/scale[band]
-scale value, --scale value
scale value for each spectral band input features:
refl=(DN[band]-offset[band])/scale[band] (use 0 if scale min and max in each band
to -1.0 and 1.0)
-a 0|1|2, --aggreg 0|1|2
how to combine aggregated classifiers, see also --rc option (0: no aggregation, 1:
sum rule, 2: max rule).
-sm method, --sm method
feature selection method (sffs=sequential floating forward search, sfs=sequential
forward search, sbs, sequential backward search, bfs=brute force search)
-ecost value, --ecost value
epsilon for stopping criterion in cost function to determine optimal number of
features
-cv value, --cv value
n-fold cross validation mode (default: 0)
-c name, --class name
list of class names.
-r value, --reclass value
list of class values (use same order as in --class option).
-n number, --nneuron number
number of neurons in hidden layers in neural network (multiple hidden layers are
set by defining multiple number of neurons: -nn 15 -nn 1, default is one hidden
layer with 5 neurons)
--connection 0|1
connection rate (default: 1.0 for a fully connected network)
-w weights, --weights weights
weights for neural network. Apply to fully connected network only, starting from
first input neuron to last output neuron, including the bias neurons (last neuron
in each but last layer)
-l rate, --learning rate
learning rate (default: 0.7)
--maxit number
number of maximum iterations (epoch) (default: 500)
