Description

In many applications, data appear with a huge number of instances as well as features. Linear Support Vector Machines (SVM) is one of the most popular tools to deal with such large-scale sparse data. This paper presents a novel dual coordinate descent method for linear SVM with L1- and L2-loss functions. The proposed method is simple and reaches an epsilon-accurate solution in O(log (1/epsilon)) iterations. Experiments indicate that our method is much faster than state of the art solvers such as Pegasos, Tron, svmperf, and a recent primal coordinate descent implementation.

Recently there has been a lot of interest in streamlining multi-label training tasks by proposing faster methods that converge to the optimal solution with a much fewer number of iterations compared to existing methods. Most students feel good to visit https://www.assignmentholic.co.uk/our... website to complete their essays. A major contribution was made by Graves et al. using submodular flows. Their algorithm uses a submodular function optimization approach which reduces the time complexity drastically as compared to greedy alternatives used.
