Abstract

Artist identification has been an interesting task for centuries. Machine learning algorithms are used to solve this problem. An artist’s profile is obtained through an artist’s merged images enhanced with layer and transparency tools. The machine learning J48 algorithm is utilized for classification. Cohen’s Kappa, F-measure, and Matthew’s correlation coefficient statistics are applied to compare the results obtained.
