A HSC-based sample selection method for support vector machine

Qing He, Ning Li, Zhongzhi Shi

Abstract: Support Vector Machine (SVM) is a classification technique of machine learning based on statistical learning theory. A quadratic optimization problem needs to be solved in the algorithm, and with the increase of the samples, the time complexity will also increase. So it is necessary to shrink training sets to reduce the time complexity. A sample selection method for SVM is proposed in this paper. It is inspired from the Hyper surface classification (HSC), which is a universal classification method based on Jordan Curve Theorem, and there is no need for mapping from lower-dimensional space to higher-dimensional space. The experiments show that the algorithm shrinks training sets keeping the accuracy for unseen vectors high.
