摘要: In critical applications, such as medical diagnosis, security related systems, and so on, the cost or risk of action taking based on incorrect classification can be very high. Hence, combining expert opinions before decision substantially increase reliability systems. Such pattern recognition systems base their final evidence collected from different classifiers. data type, feature classifier type. Common problems in recognition, curse dimensionality, small sample size, among others, have also prompted researchers into seeking new approaches for evidences. This paper presents a criteria-based framework multi-classifiers combination techniques areas applications. The criteria discussed here include levels combination, types thresholding, adaptiveness ensemble-based approaches. strengths weaknesses each these categories are details. Following this analysis, we provide our perspective outlook area research open problems. lack well-formulated theoretical analyzing performance is shown to fertile ground further research. addition summarizing existing work, updates complements latest developments
