Classification of facial diagnosis gloss in Chinese medicine based on different algorithms.

Objective: To design a face gloss classification model and to provide an automatic and quantitative approach for the diagnosis of Chinese medicine (CM) based on the face images.

Methods: To classify the face gloss images into two groups (gloss and non-gloss), feature extraction methods were applied to the original images. The original images were supposed to obtain a more ideal representation in which gloss information was better revealed in four color spaces [including red, green, blue (RGB), hue, saturation, value (HSV), Gray and Lab].

Multilabel learning for protein subcellular location prediction.

Protein subcellular localization aims at predicting the location of a protein within a cell using computational methods. Knowledge of subcellular localization of proteins indicates protein functions and helps in identifying drug targets. Prediction of protein subcellular localization is an important but challenging problem, particularly when proteins may simultaneously exist at, or move between, two or more different subcellular location sites.

MAPLSC: a novel multi-class classifier for medical diagnosis.

Analysis of clinical records contributes to the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) experience expansion and techniques promotion. More than two diagnostic classes (diagnostic syndromes) in the clinical records raise a popular data mining problem: multi-value classification. In this paper, we propose a novel multi-class classifier, named Multiple Asymmetric Partial Least Squares Classifier (MAPLSC).
