Stacked Generalization (SG) is an ensemble learning technique, which aims to increase the performance of individual classifiers by combining them under a hierarchical architecture. In many applications, this technique performs better than the individual classifiers. However, in some applications, the performance of the technique goes astray, for the reasons that are not well-known. In this work, the performance of Stacked Generalization technique is analyzed with respect to the performance of the individual classifiers under the architecture. This work shows that the success of the SG highly depends on how the individual classifiers share to learn the training set, rather than the performance of the individual classifiers. The experiments explore the learning mechanisms of SG to achieve the high performance. The relationship between the performance of the individual classifiers and that of SG is also investigated.

Performance analysis of stacked generalization Özay, Mete; Yarman Vural, Fatoş Tunay; Department of Information Systems (2008) Stacked Generalization (SG) is an ensemble learning technique, which aims to increase the performance of individual classifiers by combining them under a hierarchical architecture. This study consists of two major parts. In the first part, the performance of Stacked Generalization technique is analyzed with respect to the performance of the individual classifiers and the content of the training data. In the second part, based on the findings for a new class of algorithms, called Meta-Fuzzified Yield Value (...
A Theoretical Analysis of Feature Fusion in Stacked Generalization Ozay, Mete; Yarman Vural, Fatoş Tunay (2009-04-11) In the present work, a theoretical framework in order to define the general performance of stacked generalization learning algorithm is developed. Analytical relationships between the performance of the Stacked Generalization classifier relative to the individual classifiers are constructed by the proposed theorems and the practical techniques are developed in order to optimize the performance of stacked generalization algorithm based on these relationships.
A comparison on textured motion classification Oztekin, Kaan; Akar, Gözde (2006-01-01) Textured motion - generally known as dynamic or temporal texture analysis, classification, synthesis, segmentation and recognition is popular research areas in several fields such as computer vision, robotics, animation, multimedia databases etc. In the literature, several algorithms are proposed to characterize these textured motions such as stochastic and deterministic algorithms. However, there is no study which compares the performances of these algorithms. In this paper, we carry out a complete compari...
Linear Separability Analysis for Stacked Generalization Architecture Ozay, Mete; Vural, Fatos T. Yarman (2009-04-11) Stacked Generalization algorithm aims to increase the individual classification performances of the classifiers by combining the information obtained from various classifiers in a multilayer architecture by either linear or nonlinear techniques. Performance of the algorithm varies depending on the application domains and the space analyses that affect the classification performances could riot be applied successfully.
Unfolding diagrams as generative design tools in architectural design process: united network (UN) Studio-Möbius House , Arnhem Central Station , Mercedes Benz Museum Kuyumcu, Başak; Önür, Selahattin; Department of Architecture (2010) The aim of this thesis is to explore the role of the diagrams as generative design tools in architectural design process. Identifying the utilization of the diagrams as infrastructural and organizational elements in the design process, it aims to be concentrate on their potency for generating novel design concepts. The search has been for the possibilities of design processes developed and manipulated not through analytical use of diagrams that represents the already established relationships but through th...
