Fuzzy and SVM Based Classification Model to Classify Spectral Objects in Sloan Digital Sky

Abstract

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) comprises about one billion objects classified spectrometrically. Because astronomical datasets are so enormous, manually classifying them is nearly impossible - a huge dataset results in class imbalance and overfitting. We recommend a framework in this research study that overcomes these constraints. The framework uses a hybrid Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique + Edited Nearest Neighbor (SMOTE + ENN) balancer. The balanced dataset is then used to extract features via a non-linear algorithm using Kernel Principal Component Analysis (KPCA). The features are then passed into the proposed Int-T2-Fuzzy Support Vector Machine classifier, which uses a modified type reducer and inference engine to achieve more precise categorization. Using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey dataset and a number of evaluation metrics, the SMOTE+ENN model's performance is measured. The research shows that the model does a good job.
