Optimal learning rates for least squares SVMs using Gaussian kernels
نویسندگان
چکیده
We prove a new oracle inequality for support vector machines with Gaussian RBF kernels solving the regularized least squares regression problem. To this end, we apply the modulus of smoothness. With the help of the new oracle inequality we then derive learning rates that can also be achieved by a simple data-dependent parameter selection method. Finally, it turns out that our learning rates are asymptotically optimal for regression functions satisfying certain standard smoothness conditions.

Optimal regression rates for SVMs using Gaussian kernels
Support vector machines (SVMs) using Gaussian kernels are one of the standard and state-of-the-art learning algorithms. In this work, we establish new oracle inequalities for such SVMs when applied to either least squares or conditional quantile regression. With the help of these oracle inequalities we then derive learning rates that are (essentially) minmax optimal under standard smoothness as...
متن کاملLearning Theory Estimates with Observations from General Stationary Stochastic Processes
This letter investigates the supervised learning problem with observations drawn from certain general stationary stochastic processes. Here by general, we mean that many stationary stochastic processes can be included. We show that when the stochastic processes satisfy a generalized Bernstein-type inequality, a unified treatment on analyzing the learning schemes with various mixing processes ca...
متن کاملOptimal Learning Rates for Localized SVMs
One of the limiting factors of using support vector machines (SVMs) in large scale applications are their super-linear computational requirements in terms of the number of training samples. To address this issue, several approaches that train SVMs on many small chunks separately have been proposed in the literature. With the exception of random chunks, which is also known as divide-and-conquer ...
متن کاملLearning Rates for Kernel-Based Expectile Regression
Conditional expectiles are becoming an increasingly important tool in finance as well as in other areas of applications. We analyse a support vector machine type approach for estimating conditional expectiles and establish learning rates that are minimax optimal modulo a logarithmic factor if Gaussian RBF kernels are used and the desired expectile is smooth in a Besov sense. As a special case, ...
متن کاملRobot Control by Least-Squares Policy Iteration with Geodesic Gaussian Kernels
The least-squares policy iteration approach works efficiently in value function approximation, given appropriate basis functions. Because of its smoothness, the Gaussian kernel is a popular and useful choice as a basis function. However, it does not allow for discontinuity which typically arises in real-world reinforcement learning tasks. To overcome this problem, new basis functions called geo...
