Abstract  This paper presents a knowledge-based nonlinear kernel classification model for multi-category discrimination of sets or objects with prior knowledge. A kernel function is employed to find a nonlinear classifier capable of discriminating future points into an appropriate class. The prior knowledge is in the form of multiple polyhedral sets belonging to one or more categories or classes, and it is introduced as additional constraints into the formulation of the regularized nonlinear kernel least squares multi-class support vector machine model. The resulting formulation leads to a linear system of equations that can be solved using matrix methods or iterative methods. This work extends previous work (Oladunni et al. in ICCS 2006, Lecture notes in Computer Science, Part I, LNCS, vol 3991. Springer, Berlin, pp 188–195, 2006) that incorporated similar prior knowledge into a regularized linear least squares multi-class model. To evaluate the model, data and prior knowledge from the two-phase flow regimes in pipes were used to train and test the proposed formulation.

Keywords  Knowledge-based model - Multi-classification - Kernel - Prior knowledge - Tikhonov regularization
