A novel classification technique based on progressive transductive SVM learning.

Highlights: [•] A novel classification technique based on transductive SVM learning is presented. [•] The paper pointed out the drawbacks of the existing literature methods. [•] To mitigate drawbacks, here we exploit SVM, k-nn classifiers and cluster assumption. [•] Results were compared with two other TSVM methods existing in the literature. [•] Experimental results confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed technique. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
