Abstract

It has been known that Probabilistic Neural Networks as machine learning is very fast in it’s computation time and give a better accuracy comparing to another type of neural networks, on solving a real-world application problem. In the recent years, Support Vector Machines has become a popular model over other machine learning. It can be analyzed theoretically and can achieve a good performance at same time. This paper will describe the use of those machines learning to solve pattern recognition problems with a preliminary case study in detecting the type of splice site on the DNA sequences, particularity on the accuracy level. The results obtained show that Support Vector Machines have a good accuracy level about 95 % comparing to Probabilistic Neural Networks with 92 % approximately.
