Improvements to the SMO algorithm for SVM regression

چکیده
This paper points out an important source of inefficiency in Smola and Schölkopf's sequential minimal optimization (SMO) algorithm for support vector machine (SVM) regression that is caused by the use of a single threshold value. Using clues from the KKT conditions for the dual problem, two threshold parameters are employed to derive modifications of SMO for regression. These modified algorithms perform significantly faster than the original SMO on the datasets tried.

Improvements to Platt's SMO Algorithm for SVM Classifier Design
This article points out an important source of inefficiency in Platt’s sequential minimal optimization (SMO) algorithm that is caused by the use of a single threshold value. Using clues from the KKT conditions for the dual problem, two threshold parameters are employed to derive modifications of SMO. These modified algorithms perform significantly faster than the original SMO on all benchmark d...
متن کاملNonlinear Perceptual Audio Filtering Using Support Vector Machines
In this paper, the perceptually based loss functions for audio filtering used by Wolfe and Godsill [1] are shown to fit well within a complex-valued Support Vector Machine (SVM) framework. SVM regression is extended to estimation of complex-valued functions, including the derivation of a variant of the Sequential Minimal Optimisation (SMO) algorithm. Audio filters are derived using this based o...
متن کاملA Note on Least Squares Support Vector Machines
In this paper, we propose some improvements for the implementations of least squares support vector machine classifiers (LS-SVM). An improved conjugate gradient scheme is proposed for solving the optimization problems in LS-SVM, and an improved SMO algorithm is put forward for the general unconstrained quadratic programming problems which is the case of LS-SVM without the bias term. Numerical e...

In this note, we describe the sequential minimal optimization (SMO) algorithm to solve the soft margin support vector machine (SVM) binary classification problem, which is to be implemented as part of the miniproject. In order to understand our arguments here, the reader is advised to study the SVM chapter of the course notes, in particular the “Solving the Support Vector Machine” section (the ...
متن کاملCategory: algorithms & architectures, Preference: oral Support Vector Machines for Regression Problems with Sequential Minimal Optimization
Training a support vector machine (SVM) is usually done by mapping the underlying optimization problem into a quadratic programming (QP) problem. Unfortunately, high quality QP solvers are not readily available, which makes research into the area of SVMs difficult for the those without a QP solver. Recently, the Sequential Minimal Optimization algorithm (SMO) was introduced [1, 2]. SMO reduces ...
