classify_class_mlpT_classify_class_mlpClassifyClassMlpClassifyClassMlpclassify_class_mlp (Operator)
Name
classify_class_mlpT_classify_class_mlpClassifyClassMlpClassifyClassMlpclassify_class_mlp — Calculate the class of a feature vector by a multilayer perceptron.
Signature
def classify_class_mlp(mlphandle: HHandle, features: Sequence[float], num: Sequence[int]) -> Tuple[Sequence[int], Sequence[float]]
def classify_class_mlp_s(mlphandle: HHandle, features: Sequence[float], num: Sequence[int]) -> Tuple[int, float]
Description
classify_class_mlpclassify_class_mlpClassifyClassMlpClassifyClassMlpClassifyClassMlpclassify_class_mlp computes the best NumNumNumNumnumnum classes of
the feature vector FeaturesFeaturesFeaturesFeaturesfeaturesfeatures with the multilayer perceptron
(MLP) MLPHandleMLPHandleMLPHandleMLPHandleMLPHandlemlphandle and returns the classes in ClassClassClassClassclassValclass
and the corresponding confidences (probabilities) of the classes in
ConfidenceConfidenceConfidenceConfidenceconfidenceconfidence. Before calling classify_class_mlpclassify_class_mlpClassifyClassMlpClassifyClassMlpClassifyClassMlpclassify_class_mlp, the
MLP must be trained with train_class_mlptrain_class_mlpTrainClassMlpTrainClassMlpTrainClassMlptrain_class_mlp.
classify_class_mlpclassify_class_mlpClassifyClassMlpClassifyClassMlpClassifyClassMlpclassify_class_mlp can only be called if the MLP is used as
a classifier with OutputFunction = 'softmax'"softmax""softmax""softmax""softmax""softmax"
(see create_class_mlpcreate_class_mlpCreateClassMlpCreateClassMlpCreateClassMlpcreate_class_mlp). Otherwise, an error message is
returned. classify_class_mlpclassify_class_mlpClassifyClassMlpClassifyClassMlpClassifyClassMlpclassify_class_mlp corresponds to a call to
evaluate_class_mlpevaluate_class_mlpEvaluateClassMlpEvaluateClassMlpEvaluateClassMlpevaluate_class_mlp and an additional step that extracts the
best NumNumNumNumnumnum classes. As described with
evaluate_class_mlpevaluate_class_mlpEvaluateClassMlpEvaluateClassMlpEvaluateClassMlpevaluate_class_mlp, the output values of the MLP can be
interpreted as probabilities of the occurrence of the respective
classes. In most cases it should be sufficient
to use NumNumNumNumnumnum = 1 in order to decide whether the
probability of the best class is high enough. In some applications
it may be interesting to also take the second best class into
account (NumNumNumNumnumnum = 2), particularly if it can be
expected that the classes show a significant degree of overlap.
Execution Information
- Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
- Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
- Processed without parallelization.
