| Summary: | Recently, extreme learning machine (ELM) has attracted increasing attention due to its successful applications in classification, regression, and ranking. Normally, the desired output of the learning system using these machine learning techniques is a simple scalar output. However, there are many applications in machine learning which require more complex output rather than a simple scalar one. Therefore, structured output is used for such applications where the system is trained to predict structured output instead of simple one. Previously, support vector machine (SVM) has been introduced for structured output learning in various applications. However, from machine learning point of view, ELM is known to offer better generalization performance compared to other learning techniques. In this study, we extend ELM to more generalized framework to handle complex outputs where simple outputs are considered as special cases of it. Besides the good generalization property of ELM, the resulting model will possesses rich internal structure that reflects task-specific relations and constraints. The experimental results show that structured ELM achieves similar (for binary problems) or better (for multi-class problems) generalization performance when compared to ELM. Moreover, as verified by the simulation results, structured ELM has comparable or better precision performance with structured SVM when tested for more complex output such as object localization problem on PASCAL VOC2006. Also, the investigation on parameter selections is presented and discussed for all problems. |
