摘要: A support vector machine (SVM) is a novel classifier based on the statistical learning theory. To increase performance of classification, approach SVM with kernel usually used in classification tasks. In this study, we first attempted to investigate kernel. Several functions, polynomial, RBF, summation, and multiplication were employed feature selection developed [Hermes, L., & Buhmann, J. M. (2000). Feature for machines. Proceedings international conference pattern recognition (ICPR'00) (Vol. 2, pp. 716-719)] was utilized determine important features. Then, hypertension diagnosis case implemented 13 anthropometrical factors related selected. Implementation results show that combined better than single approach. Compared backpropagation neural network method, method found have two epidemiological indices such as sensitivity specificity.
