Support Vector Machines 论文

摘要

Support vector machines are statistical- and machine-learning techniques with the primary goal of prediction. They can be applied to continuous, binary, and categorical outcomes analogous to Gaussian, logistic, and multinomial regression. We introduce a new command for this purpose, svmachines. This package is a thin wrapper for the widely deployed libsvm (Chang and Lin, 2011, ACM Transactions on Intelligent Systems and Technology 2(3): Article 27). We illustrate svmachines with two examples.
