ANALYSIS OF TAMIL CHARACTER WRITINGS AND IDENTIFICATION OF WRITER USING SUPPORT VECTOR MACHINE
(IEEE International Conference on Advanced Communication Control and Computing Technologies (ICACCCT), 2014 indexed in IEEE Xplore Digital Library, 2014) Thendral T; Vijaya M S; Karpagavalli S
Distinctive Handwriting is a thought provoking task in writer identification. The style and shape of the letters written by the same writer may vary and entirely different for different writers. Alphabets in the handwritten text may have loops, crossings, junctions, different directions and so on. Therefore exact prediction of individual based on his/her handwriting is highly complex and challenging task. This paper proposes a new model for learning the writer's identity constructed on Tamil handwriting. Handwritten documents written by the writers are scanned and segmented into words. Words are further segmented into characters for character level writer identification. The character writings in Tamil are analyzed and their describing features are defined. The Writer identification problem is formulated as classification task and a pattern classification technique namely Support Vector Machine has been employed to construct the model. It has been reported about 90. 6% of prediction accuracy by RBF kernel based classification model in character level writer identification.
AUTOMATIC TAG RECOMMENDATION FOR JOURNAL ABSTRACTS USING STATISTICAL TOPIC MODELING
(Springer Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing(AISC Series), 2015) Anupriya P; Karpagavalli S
Topic modeling is a powerful technique for unsupervised analysis of large document collections. Topic models conceive latent topics in text using hidden random variables, and discover that structure with posterior inference. Topic models have a wide range of applications like tag recommendation, text categorization, keyword extraction and similarity search in the broad fields of text mining, information retrieval, statistical language modeling. In this work, a dataset with 200 abstracts fall under four topics are collected from two different domain journals for tagging journal abstracts. The document model is built using LDA (Latent Dirichlet Allocation) with Collapsed Variational Bayes (CVB0) and Gibbs sampling. Then the built model is used to find appropriate tag for a given abstract. An interface is designed to extract and recommend the tag for a given abstract.

(IEEE Xplore and IEEE CS Digital Library, 2010-06) Jamuna K S; Karpagavalli S; Vijaya M S; Revathi P; Gokilavani S; Madhiya E
Cotton, popularly known as "White Gold" has been an important commercial crop of national significance due to the immense influence of its rural economy. Cotton seed is an important and critical link in the chain of agricultural activities extending farmer industry linkage. Cotton yield is associated with high quality seed as the seed contains in itself the blue print for the agrarian prosperity in incipient form. Transfer of technology to identify the quality of seeds is gaining importance. Hence this work employs machine learning approach to classify the quality of seeds based on the different growth stages of the cotton crop. Machine learning techniques - Naïve Bayes Classifier, Decision Tree Classifier and Multilayer Perceptron were applied for training the model. Features are extracted from a set of 900 records of different categories to facilitate training and implementation. The performance of the model was evaluated using 10 -fold cross validation. The results obtained show that Decision Tree Classifier and Multilayer Perceptron provides the same accuracy in classifying the seed cotton yield. The time taken to build the model is higher in Multilayer Perceptron as compared to the Decision Tree Classifier.
A DEEP ENSEMBLE MODEL FOR AUTOMATED MULTICLASS CLASSIFICATION USING DERMOSCOPY IMAGES
(IEEE, 2022-03-31) Kalaivani A; Karpagavalli S
In medical diagnosis, manual skin tumor treatment is time consuming and exclusive, it is important to create computerized analytic strategies that can accurately classify skin lesions of many stages. A completely automatic way to classify skin lesions of many categories has been presented. Automatic dissection of skin lesions and isolation are two major and related functions in the diagnosis of computer-assisted skin cancer. Even with their widespread use, deep learning models are typically only intended to execute a single task, neglecting the potential benefits of executing both functions simultaneously. The Bootstrapping Ensembles based Convolutional Neural Networks (BE-CNN) model is proposed in this paper for the separation of skin lesions simultaneously and for classification. A Compute-Intensive Segmentation Network (CI-SN), comprise this model (improved-SN). On one hand, Compute-Intensive Segmentation Network creates uneven lesion covers that serves as a pre-bootstrapping, allowing it to reliably find and classify skin lesions. Both division and arrangement networks, in this approach, mutually transmit assistance and experience each other in a bootstrapping manner. However, to deal with the challenges posed by class inequality and simple pixel inequality, a novel method in segmentation networks is proposed. On the ISIC-HAM 10000 datasets, the proposed BE-CNN model is evaluated and found that it achieves mean skin lesion classification accuracy of 93.8 percentile, which is higher than the function of the separation of skin lesions representing the modern condition and stages techniques. Proposed outcomes demonstrate that via preparing a bound together model to execute the two tasks in a non-stop bootstrapping strategy, it is feasible to work on the presentation of skin sore division and grouping simultaneously.

MULTI-LABEL CLASSIFICATION- PROBLEM TRANSFORMATION METHODS IN TAMIL PHONEME CLASSIFICATION
(In Proceedings of 7th International Conference on Advances in Computing & Communications (ICACC August 2017), Kochi, Elsevier Procedia Computer Science., 2017) Pushpa M; Karpagavalli S
Most of the supervised learning task has been carried out using single label classification and solved as binary or multiclass classification problems. The hierarchical relationship among the classes leads to Multi- Label (ML) classification which is learning from a set of instances that are associated with a set of labels. In Tamil language, phonemes fall into different categories according to place and manner of articulation. This motivates the application of multi-label classification methods to classify Tamil phonemes. Experiments are carried out using Binary Relevance (BR) and Label Powerset (LP) and BR’s improvement Classifier Chains (CC) methods with different base classifiers and the results are analysed.

(International Conference on Advances in Computing, Control and Telecommunication Technologies, ACT 2009 archived in IEEE Xplore and IEEE CS Digital Library., 2009) Karpagavalli S; Jamuna K S; Vijaya M S
Passwords are a vital component of system security. Though there are many alternatives to passwords for access control, password is the more compellingly authenticating the identity in many applications. They provide a simple, direct means of protecting a system and they represent the identity of an individual for a system. The big vulnerability of passwords lies in their nature. Users are consistently told that a strong password is essential these days to protect private data as there are so many ways for an unauthorized person with little technical knowledge or skill to learn the passwords of legitimate users. Thus it is important for organizations to recognize the vulnerabilities to which passwords are subjected, and develop strong policies governing the creation and use of passwords to ensure that those vulnerabilities are not exploited. In this work password strength prediction is modeled as classification task and supervised machine learning techniques were employed. Widely used supervised machine learning techniques namely C 4.5 decision tree classifier, multilayer perceptron, naive Bayes classifier and support vector machine were used for learning the model. The results of the models were compared and observed that SVM performs well. The results of the models were also compared with the existing password strength checking tools. The findings show that machine learning approach has substantial capability to classify the extreme cases - Strong and weak passwords.

(International Conference on Advanced Computing & Communication Systems, held at Sri Eshwar College of Engineering, Coimbatore during 5-7 January 2015 and published in the conference proceedings, indexed in IEEE Xplore Digital Library., 2015-01-05) Karpagavalli S; Chandra E
Speech is the standard means of communication among people. Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) applications facilitate the users to interact with machines through speech and perform their tasks effortlessly. Speech Recognition applications in native languages will enable illiterate and semi-illiterate people to use computer services without any/little knowledge to operate computers and to lead better life. In the proposed work, speaker independent isolated- phoneme and word recognition systems have been developed for the Indian regional language Tamil. The Hidden Markov Tool Kit (HTK) was used for developing speaker independent phoneme and word based Tamil speech recognition system. The work involves main tasks like Feature Extraction, Acoustic Model Building and Decoding. Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) is extracted from the speech utterances and Hidden Markov Model (HMM) used to build the acoustic model. In building acoustic model, Multivariate Gaussian Mixture Model with different number of components is used to estimate the state emission probabilities and finally Viterbi Decoder employed to recognize the test speech utterances. A small vocabulary of 50 words which are collected from 10 native speakers of Tamil language was used to build and test the model. The performance of both phoneme and word based models have been analyzed and the recognition accuracy and word error rate of the models are discussed.
A SURVEY AND ANALYSIS OF DEEP LEARNING TECHNIQUES FOR BIRD SPECIES CLASSIFICATION
(IEEE Xplore, 2023-06-16) Sivaranjani B; Karpagavalli S
The ability to accurately identify the species of a bird in an image is crucial. A bird’s species identification can be accomplished using images and audios. In earlier periods, the audio of birds are utilized to possibly recognize the different species of birds. But, background noise from things like birds, insects, and the wind makes it difficult for this method to produce a reliable result. Comparatively, observer’s finds images are better than audios. Using images, people are better able to discriminate between birds. However, because of the inexperience of most bird watchers and the similarity of bird forms and backgrounds, identifying birds can be difficult. To address this, Deep Learning (DL) models have been implemented to efficiently extract features from photos collected for recognition. DL models for bird species identification provides more accuracy. The recently proposed transfer learning and spatial pyramid pooling efficiently classify bird spicies. Another recently proposed Mask-CNN based method solved few shot classifcation problem effectively. But, both of these method are suffered to distinguish the subcategory of spicies form main categories. In this article, the of bird species identification techniques are studied in brief to encourage further research in this field. First, the review is planned to investigate the DL algorithms for identifying the different bird species types. Next, the merits and demerits of every algorithms are analyzed based on its performance. Finally, potential improvements are emphasized to achieve greater efficiency in identifying the bird species.

(International Conference on Communication and Signal Processing (ICCSP’15), Adhiparasakthi Engineering College, Melmaruvathur, indexed in IEEE Xplore Digital Library, 2015, 2015) Karpagavalli S; Chandra E
The speech recognition systems may be designed based on any one of the sub-word unit phoneme, tri-phone and syllable. The phonemes are a set of base-forms for representing the unique sounds in a particular language. In supervised phoneme classification, the segmentation of phoneme, features and class label are given and the goal is to classify the phoneme. Phoneme classification and recognition can be useful in applications such as spoken document retrieval, named entity extraction, out-of-vocabulary detection, language identification, and spoken term detection. In trained speech, each phoneme occurs clearly in speech waveform. In spontaneous speech, due to co-articulation effect, influence of adjacent phonemes is present in each phoneme where left and right context frame information plays vital role in accurate phoneme classification. In the proposed work, three discriminative classifiers like Multilayer Perceptron, Naive Bayes and Support Vector Machine are used to classify 25 phonemes of Tamil language. The approximate boundaries of phoneme identified using Spectral Transition Measure (STM). After segmentation, Mel Frequency Cepstral Co-Efficient (MFCC) of 9 frames including 4 left context frames, 1 centre frame corresponding to the phoneme and 4 right context frames are extracted and used as input to classifiers. Tamil word dataset prepared to cover 25 phonemes of the language. The performance of the classifiers are analysed and results are presented.
