Circular Bayesian classifiers using wrapped Cauchy distributions

作者:

Highlights:

• An adaptation of Bayesian network classifiers to circular domain is proposed.

• The classifiers are suitable for wrapped Cauchy distributions.

• A conditional circular mutual information for wrapped Cauchy is presented

• Wrapped Cauchy classifiers outperform linear Bayesian network classifiers.

• Neuron layer identification is appropriate for wrapped Cauchy classifiers.
