    • An ordinal CNN approach for the assessment of neurological damage in Parkinson’s disease patients 

      Barbero-Gómez, Javier; Gutiérrez, Pedro A.; Vargas Rojas, Víctor Manuel; Vallejo-Casas, Juan-Antonio; Hervás-Martínez, César (Elsevier, 2021)
      3D image scans are an assessment tool for neurological damage in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients. This diagnosis process can be automatized to help medical staff through Decision Support Systems (DSSs), and Convolutional ...
    • Deep Ordinal Classification in Forest Areas Using Light Detection and Ranging Point Clouds 

      Morales-Martín, Alejandro; Mesas Carrascosa, Francisco Javier; Gutiérrez, Pedro Antonio; Pérez Porras, Fernando; Vargas, Víctor Manuel; Hervás-Martínez, César (MDPI, 2024)
      Recent advances in Deep Learning and aerial Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) have offered the possibility of refining the classification and segmentation of 3D point clouds to contribute to the monitoring of complex ...
    • Error-Correcting Output Codes in the Framework of Deep Ordinal Classification 

      Barbero-Gómez, Javier; Gutiérrez, Pedro Antonio; Hervás-Martínez, César (Springer, 2022)
      Automatic classification tasks on structured data have been revolutionized by Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), but the focus has been on binary and nominal classification tasks. Only recently, ordinal classification ...
    • Exploitation of Pairwise Class Distances for Ordinal Classification 

      Sánchez-Monedero, J.; Gutiérrez, Pedro A.; Tino, Peter; Hervás-Martínez, César (2013-07-15)
      Ordinal classification refers to classification problems in which the classes have a natural order imposed on them because of the nature of the concept studied. Some ordinal classification approaches perform a projection ...
    • Ordinal regression methods: survey and experimental study 

      Gutiérrez, Pedro A.; Pérez-Ortiz, María; Sánchez-Monedero, J.; Fernández-Navarro, Francisco; Hervás-Martínez, César (2017-02-03)
      Abstract—Ordinal regression problems are those machine learning problems where the objective is to classify patterns using a categorical scale which shows a natural order between the labels. Many real-world applications ...
