#Exact Soft Confidence-Weighted Learning
##The explanation of the algorithm
This is an online supervised learning algorithm.
This learning method enjoys all the four salient properties:
- Large margin training
- Confidence weighting
- Capability to handle non-separable data
- Adaptive margin
The paper is here.
There are 2 kinds of implementations presented in the paper, which served as
scw.SCW1(C, ETA)
scw.SCW2(C, ETA)
in the code. C and ETA are hyperparameters.
##Usage
from scw import SCW1, SCW2
scw = SCW1(C=1.0, ETA=1.0)
weights, covariance = scw.fit(training_data, teachers)
results = scw.perdict(test_data)
teachers
is 1-dimensional and training_data
and test_data
are 2-dimensional array.
