A Support Vector Machine Approach for Detection of Microcalcifications
In this paper, we investigate an approach based on support vector machines (SVMs) for detection of microcalcification (MC) clusters in digital mammograms, and propose a successive ...

On the generalization of soft margin algorithms
Generalization bounds depending on the margin of a classifier are a relatively recent development. They provide an explanation of the performance of state-of-the-art learning syste...

Text Categorization with Support Vector Machines. How to Represent Texts in Input Space?
The choice of the kernel function is crucial to most applications of support vector machines. In this paper, however, we show that in the case of text classification, term-frequenc...

A Simple Decomposition Method for Support Vector Machines
The decomposition method is currently one of the major methods for solving support vector machines. An important issue of this method is the selection of working sets. In this pape...

Training Invariant Support Vector Machines
Practical experience has shown that in order to obtain the best possible performance, prior knowledge about invariances of a classification problem at hand ought to be incorporated...

A Robust Minimax Approach to Classification
When constructing a classifier, the probability of correct classification of future data points should be maximized. We consider a binary classification problem where the mean and...
