In this paper, the conventional one-against-rest SVC is resorted to perform a multi-class classification task because this classifier is simple in terms of training and testing. However, this SVC needs all decision functions to classify the query sample. In our study, this classifier is improved to make the fault classification task more fast and efficient. Also, in order to reduce the size of the feature samples, the wavelet packet analysis is employed. In our investigations, the wavelet analysis can be used as a tool of feature extractor or noise filter and this preprocessor can improve the fault classification resolution of the analog circuits. Moreover, our investigation illustrates that the SVC can be applicable to the domain of analog fault classification and this novel classifier can be viewed as an alternative for the back-propagation (BP) neural network classifier.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={A Novel Approach of Analog Fault Classification Using a Support Vector Machines Classifier}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/107073/PDF/Journal10178-VolumeXVII%20Issue4_05%20paper.pdf}, doi={10.2478/v10178-010-0046-0}, keywords={analog circuits, fault classification, Support Vector Machines Classifier, Neural Networks, wavelet packet decomposition}, }
