Pattern Recognition in AVHRR Images by Means of Hibryd and Neuro-fuzzy Systems

The main goal of this work is to improve the automatic interpretation of ocean satellite images. We present a comparative study of different classifiers: Graphic Expert System (GES), ANN-based Symbolic Processing Element (SPE), Hybrid System (ANN – Radial Base Function & Fuzzy System), Neuro-Fuzzy System and Bayesian Network.. We wish to show the utility of hybrid and neuro-fuzzy system in recongnition of oceanic structures. On the other hand, other objective is the feature selection, which is considered a fundamental step for pattern recognition. This paper reports a study of learning Bayesian Network for feature selection [1] in the recognition of oceanic structures in satellite images.
