Abstract
In this article, a sequential correction of two linear methods: linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and perceptron is proposed. This correction relies on sequential joining of additional features on which the classifier is trained. These new features are posterior probabilities determined by a basic classification method such as LDA and perceptron. In each step, we add the probabilities obtained on a slightly different data set, because the vector of added probabilities varies at each step. We therefore have many classifiers of the same type trained on slightly different data sets. Four different sequential correction methods are presented based on different combining schemas (e.g. mean rule and product rule). Experimental results on different data sets demonstrate that the improvements are efficient, and that this approach outperforms classical linear methods, providing a significant reduction in the mean classification error rate.
