Sammanfattning
This report examines four basic machine learning algorithms for classification problems: linear regression, the Precptron-algorithm, the Winnow-algorithm and a type of artificial neural network called multi-layer Perceptron. The mathematical foundation of these algorithms are developed throughout the report and provides the reader with a better understanding of the algorithms. Furthermore the algorithms are implemented in MATLAB and the code is availible in appendix for reference. The proportion of missclassified data is used as the main indicator of an algorithms performance, however the precison and recall of the algorithms is also taken into account. Three different data sets are tested: two data sets are simulated in MATLAB and a third dermatologic data set is gathered from a public database. These data sets are used to evaluate the performance of the algorithms. The simulated sets are chosen such that they introduce certain difficulties for the classification of the data. Finally, two performance boosting algorithms are implemented and tested for each classification algorithm. The result of using the boosting algorithms are compared to the results of not using them. The median of the proportion of missclassified examples is for both simulated data sets 0 % for all algorithms. Moreover the four algorithms achieves a median error of 2:78 % for the dermatologic data set even if some spread and differences between the algorithms are noted.
