Model Development and Incremental Learning Based on Case Based Reasoning for Signal and Image Analysis
Over the years, image mining and knowledge discovery gained importance to solving problems. They are used in developing systems for automatic signal analysis and interpretation. The issues of model building and adaption, allowing an automatic system to adjust to the changing environments and moving objects, became increasingly important. One method of achieving adaptation in model building and model learning is Case Based Reasoning (CBR) Case Based Reasoning can be seen as a reasoning method as well as an incremental learning and knowledge acquisition method. In this paper we provide an overview of the CBR process and its main features: similarity, memory organization, CBR learning, and case base maintenance. Then we review, based on applications, what has been achieved so far. The applications we are focusing on are meta learning for parameter selection, image interpretation, incremental prototype based classification, novelty detection and handling, and 1 D signal interpretation represented by a 0_1 sequence. Finally, we will summarize the overall concept of CBR usage for model development and learning.
