class mlpack::svm::LinearSVM< MatType >

The LinearSVM class implements an L2-regularized support vector machine model, and supports training with multiple optimizers and classification.

The class supports different observation types via the MatType template parameter; for instance, support vector classification can be performed on sparse datasets by specifying arma::sp_mat as the MatType parameter.

Linear SVM can be used for general classification tasks which will work on multiclass classification. More technical details about the model can be found from the following:

An example on how to use the interface is shown below:

arma::mat train_data; // Training data matrix.
arma::Row<size_t> labels; // Labels associated with the data.
const size_t inputSize = 1000; // Size of input feature vector.
const size_t numClasses = 5; // Number of classes.
// Train the model using default options.
LinearSVM<> lsvm(train_data, labels, inputSize, numClasses, lambda,
    delta, L_BFGS());
arma::mat test_data;
arma::Row<size_t> predictions;
lsvm.Classify(test_data, predictions);

Template Parameters

MatType Type of data matrix.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ LinearSVM() [1/2]

LinearSVM	(	const MatType &	data,
		const arma::Row< size_t > &	labels,
		const size_t	numClasses = `2`,
		const double	lambda = `0.0001`,
		const double	delta = `1.0`,
		const bool	fitIntercept = `false`,
		OptimizerType	optimizer = `OptimizerType()`
	)

Construct the LinearSVM class with the provided data and labels.

This will train the model. Optionally, the parameter 'lambda' can be passed, which controls the amount of L2-regularization in the objective function. By default, the model takes a small value.

Template Parameters

OptimizerType Desired differentiable separable optimizer

Parameters

data	Input training features. Each column associate with one sample
labels	Labels associated with the feature data.
numClasses	Number of classes for classification.
lambda	L2-regularization constant. delta Margin of difference between correct class and other classes.
optimizer	Desired optimizer.

◆ LinearSVM() [2/2]

LinearSVM	(	const size_t	inputSize,
		const size_t	numClasses = `0`,
		const double	lambda = `0.0001`,
		const double	delta = `1.0`,
		const bool	fitIntercept = `false`
	)

Initialize the Linear SVM without performing training.

Default value of lambda is 0.0001. Be sure to use Train() before calling Classify() or ComputeAccuracy(), otherwise the results may be meaningless.

Parameters

inputSize	Size of the input feature vector.
numClasses	Number of classes for classification.
lambda	L2-regularization constant. delta Margin of difference between correct class and other classes.
fitIntercept	add intercept term or not.
