Abstract

Pairwise coupling is a popular multi-class classification approach that prepares binary classifiers separating each pair of classes, and then combines the binary classifiers together. This paper proposes a pairwise coupling combination strategy using individual logistic regressions (ILR-PWC). We show analytically and experimentally that the ILR-PWC approach is more accurate than the individual logistic regressions.
