Specifically, this example will make points from three classes and show you how to train a multiclass classifier to recognize these three classes. The classes are as follows: - class 1: points very close to the origin - class 2: points on the circle of radius 10 around the origin - class 3: points that are on a circle of radius 4 but not around the origin at all */ #include #include #include #include using namespace std; using namespace dlib; // Our data will be 2-dimensional data.

It is essentially // a container class for regular binary classifier trainer objects. In particular, it // uses the any_trainer object to store any kind of trainer object that implements a // .train(samples,labels) function which returns some kind of learned decision function. // It uses these binary classifiers to construct a voting multiclass classifier. If // there are N classes then it trains N*(N-1)/2 binary classifiers, one for each pair of // labels, which then vote on the label of a sample. // // In this example program we will work with a one_vs_one_trainer object which stores any // kind of trainer that uses our sample_type samples. typedef one_vs_one_trainer > ovo_trainer; // Finally, make the one_vs_one_trainer. ovo_trainer trainer; // Next, we will make two different binary classification trainer objects. One // which uses kernel ridge regression and RBF kernels and another which uses a // support vector machine and polynomial kernels.

It is the confusion matrix which describes the results. Each row // corresponds to a class of data and each column to a prediction. Reading from top to bottom, // the rows correspond to the class labels if the labels have been listed in sorted order. So the // top row corresponds to class 1, the middle row to class 2, and the bottom row to class 3. The // columns are organized similarly, with the left most column showing how many samples were predicted // as members of class 1. // // So in the results below we can see that, for the class 1 samples, 60 of them were correctly predicted // to be members of class 1 and 0 were incorrectly classified. Similarly, the other two classes of data // are perfectly classified. /* cross validation: 60 0 0 0 70 0 0 0 80 */ // Next, if you wanted to obtain the decision rule learned by a one_vs_one_trainer you // would store it into a one_vs_one_decision_function. one_vs_one_decision_function df = trainer.train(samples, labels); cout << "predicted label: "<< df(samples[0]) << ", true label: "<< labels[0] << endl; cout << "predicted label: "<< df(samples[90]) << ", true label: "<< labels[90] << endl; // The output is: /* predicted label: 2, true label: 2 predicted label: 1, true label: 1 */ // If you want to save a one_vs_one_decision_function to disk, you can do // so.
