System and method for pattern recognition
First Claim
1. The method for generating a classifier, comprising the steps of:
- collecting sample patterns that are representative of data to be processed by the classifier;
generating sample pattern signals that represent the sample patterns for processing;
generating a number of transformers;
identifying the transformers that map between sample patterns of the same pattern-type in the collected sample patterns;
generating additional patterns with the identified transformers and the sample pattern signals;
forming a table that contains the generated patterns and an indication of the pattern-type to which each pattern belongs;
testing the table of the classifier with some of the collected sample patterns to measure the accuracy of the classifier; and
repeating the steps of generating additional patterns and forming a table until the measure accuracy does not provide an acceptable improvement.

Abstract
A method and system includes a method for generating a classifier from a set of collected sample patterns for use in pattern recognition. The sample patterns are representative of data to be processed by the classifier and are converted to electronic signals to be manipulated by a programmed computer. Further, the method and system generate and identify a number of transformers that map between sample patterns of the same pattern-type in the collected sample patterns. The method and system use the transformers and the sample patterns to generate additional patterns. The method and system then forms a table that contains the generated patterns and an indication of the pattern-type to which each pattern belongs. The process repeats the steps of generating additional patterns and forming a table until a measure accuracy for the mapping of the sample patterns and transformers do not provide an acceptable improvement.
