Application of Multitask Joint Sparse Representation Algorithm in Chinese Painting Image Classification by Dongyu Yang, Xinchen Ye, Baolong Guo

“…The discriminative ability of multiple features for target recognition is integrated by multitask learning, thus improving the robustness and generalization ability of the algorithm; meanwhile, the recognition accuracy is improved by using a two-level multitask learning mode to exclude the interference of a large number of irrelevant dictionary atoms. The experimental results show that the algorithm has higher recognition accuracy and better robustness than the existing sparse representation SAR target recognition algorithm. …”
