Incremental Learning in Modelling Process Analysis Technology (PAT)-An Important Tool in the Measuring and Control Circuit on the Way to the Smart Factory.

To meet the demands of the chemical and pharmaceutical process industry for a combination of high measurement accuracy, product selectivity, and low cost of ownership, the existing measurement and evaluation methods have to be further developed. This paper demonstrates the attempt to combine future Raman photometers with promising evaluation methods. As part of the investigations presented here, a new and easy-to-use evaluation method based on a self-learning algorithm is presented.

Incremental learning with SVM for multimodal classification of prostatic adenocarcinoma.

Robust detection of prostatic cancer is a challenge due to the multitude of variants and their representation in MR images. We propose a pattern recognition system with an incremental learning ensemble algorithm using support vector machines (SVM) tackling this problem employing multimodal MR images and a texture-based information strategy. The proposed system integrates anatomic, texture, and functional features.
