Hi Jean-Patrick,

Y is the known corresponding digit identity. The function to "jitter" the digit images around a bit just takes digits.target as Y and concatenates it with itself five times, so the expanded dataset has known identities to compare against.

Regards,
Josh

Thanks you for the links.

Regarding the rbm classifier in the following example. At first sight I don't understand what is Y array (X array seems to be the set of images).

Dear All,

I am trying to make pairs of images from the following set of images (chromosomes sorted by size after rotation). The idea is to make a feature vector for unsupervised classification (kmeans with 19 clusters)


From each chromosome an integral image was calculated:

plt.figure(figsize = (15,15))
gs1 = gridspec.GridSpec(6,8)
gs1.update(wspace=0.0, hspace=0.0) # set the spacing between axes.
for i in range(38):
   # i = i + 1 # grid spec indexes from 0
    ax1 = plt.subplot(gs1[i])
    plt.axis('off')
    ax1.set_xticklabels([])
    ax1.set_yticklabels([])
    ax1.set_aspect('equal')
    image = sk.transform.integral_image(reallysorted[i][:,:,2])
    imshow(image , interpolation='nearest')


Then each integral image was flatten and combined with the others:

Features =[]

for i in range(38):
    Feat = np.ndarray.flatten(sk.transform.integral_image(reallysorted[i][:,:,2]))
    Features.append(Feat)
X = np.asarray(Features)
print X.shape


The X array contains 38 lines and 9718 features, which is not good. However, I trried to submit these raw features to kmeans classification with sklearn using a direct example :

from sklearn.neighbors import NearestNeighbors
nbrs = NearestNeighbors(n_neighbors=19, algorithm='ball_tree').fit(X)
distances, indices = nbrs.kneighbors(X)
connection = nbrs.kneighbors_graph(X).toarray()
Ploting the connection graph shows that a chromosomes is similar to more than one ...
  • Do you think that integral images can be used to discriminate the chromosomes pairs?
  • If so, how to reduce the number of features to 10~20? (to get a better discrimination)
Thanks for your advices.
