TrainOGRLayersClassifier (DEPRECATED)

Train a SVM classifier based on labeled geometries and a list of features to consider.

Detailed description

This application trains a SVM classifier based on labeled geometries and a list of features to consider for classification. This application is deprecated, prefer using TrainVectorClassifier which offers access to all the classifiers.

Parameters

This section describes in details the parameters available for this application. Table [1] presents a summary of these parameters and the parameters keys to be used in command-line and programming languages. Application key is TrainOGRLayersClassifier .

Parameter Key Parameter Type Parameter Description
inshp Input vector data Input vector data
instats Input File name Input File name
outsvm Output File name Output File name
feat List List
cfield String String
inxml XML input parameters file XML input parameters file
outxml XML output parameters file XML output parameters file
  • Name of the input shapefile: Name of the input shapefile.
  • XML file containing mean and variance of each feature.: XML file containing mean and variance of each feature.
  • Output model filename.: Output model filename.
  • List of features to consider for classification.: List of features to consider for classification.
  • Field containing the class id for supervision: Field containing the class id for supervision. Only geometries with this field available will be taken into account.
  • Load otb application from xml file: Load otb application from xml file.
  • Save otb application to xml file: Save otb application to xml file.

Example

To run this example in command-line, use the following:

otbcli_TrainOGRLayersClassifier -inshp vectorData.shp -instats meanVar.xml -outsvm svmModel.svm -feat perimeter -cfield predicted

To run this example from Python, use the following code snippet:

#!/usr/bin/python

# Import the otb applications package
import otbApplication

# The following line creates an instance of the TrainOGRLayersClassifier application
TrainOGRLayersClassifier = otbApplication.Registry.CreateApplication("TrainOGRLayersClassifier")

# The following lines set all the application parameters:
TrainOGRLayersClassifier.SetParameterString("inshp", "vectorData.shp")

TrainOGRLayersClassifier.SetParameterString("instats", "meanVar.xml")

TrainOGRLayersClassifier.SetParameterString("outsvm", "svmModel.svm")

# The following line execute the application
TrainOGRLayersClassifier.ExecuteAndWriteOutput()

Limitations

Experimental. For now only shapefiles are supported. Tuning of SVM classifier is not available.
