Restaurant Reviews Analysis Model Based on ML Algorithms
This article was published as a part of the blog. In this article, we will be dealing with the Restaurant reviews dataset. In this dataset, there are reviews from the customers which are either positive or negative. And now we are going to build a machine learning model using both Support Vector Classifier(SVC) and Count Vectorizer methods. And finally, this model is going to predict whether the given review is either positive or negative.
Machine Learning and AI: Support Vector Machines in Python
Support Vector Machines (SVM) are one of the most powerful machine learning models around, and this topic has been one that students have requested ever since I started making courses. These days, everyone seems to be talking about deep learning, but in fact there was a time when support vector machines were seen as superior to neural networks. One of the things you'll learn about in this course is that a support vector machine actually is a neural network, and they essentially look identical if you were to draw a diagram. The toughest obstacle to overcome when you're learning about support vector machines is that they are very theoretical. This theory very easily scares a lot of people away, and it might feel like learning about support vector machines is beyond your ability.
Robust SVM Optimization in Banach spaces
Sbihi, Mohammed, Couellan, Nicolas
We address the issue of binary classification in Banach spaces in presence of uncertainty. We show that a number of results from classical support vector machines theory can be appropriately generalised to their robust counterpart in Banach spaces. These include the Representer Theorem, strong duality for the associated Optimization problem as well as their geometric interpretation. Furthermore, we propose a game theoretic interpretation by expressing a Nash equilibrium problem formulation for the more general problem of finding the closest points in two closed convex sets when the underlying space is reflexive and smooth.
A hypothesis-driven method based on machine learning for neuroimaging data analysis
Gorriz, JM, Martin-Clemente, R., Puntonet, C. G., Ortiz, A., Ramirez, J., Suckling, J.
There remains an open question about the usefulness and the interpretation of Machine learning (MLE) approaches for discrimination of spatial patterns of brain images between samples or activation states. In the last few decades, these approaches have limited their operation to feature extraction and linear classification tasks for between-group inference. In this context, statistical inference is assessed by randomly permuting image labels or by the use of random effect models that consider between-subject variability. These multivariate MLE-based statistical pipelines, whilst potentially more effective for detecting activations than hypotheses-driven methods, have lost their mathematical elegance, ease of interpretation, and spatial localization of the ubiquitous General linear Model (GLM). Recently, the estimation of the conventional GLM has been demonstrated to be connected to an univariate classification task when the design matrix is expressed as a binary indicator matrix. In this paper we explore the complete connection between the univariate GLM and MLE \emph{regressions}. To this purpose we derive a refined statistical test with the GLM based on the parameters obtained by a linear Support Vector Regression (SVR) in the \emph{inverse} problem (SVR-iGLM). Subsequently, random field theory (RFT) is employed for assessing statistical significance following a conventional GLM benchmark. Experimental results demonstrate how parameter estimations derived from each model (mainly GLM and SVR) result in different experimental design estimates that are significantly related to the predefined functional task. Moreover, using real data from a multisite initiative the proposed MLE-based inference demonstrates statistical power and the control of false positives, outperforming the regular GLM.
Support Vectors and Gradient Dynamics for Implicit Bias in ReLU Networks
Lee, Sangmin, Sim, Byeongsu, Ye, Jong Chul
Understanding implicit bias of gradient descent has been an important goal in machine learning research. Unfortunately, even for a single-neuron ReLU network, it recently proved impossible to characterize the implicit regularization with the square loss by an explicit function of the norm of model parameters. In order to close the gap between the existing theory and the intriguing empirical behavior of ReLU networks, here we examine the gradient flow dynamics in the parameter space when training single-neuron ReLU networks. Specifically, we discover implicit bias in terms of support vectors in ReLU networks, which play a key role in why and how ReLU networks generalize well. Moreover, we analyze gradient flows with respect to the magnitude of the norm of initialization, and show the impact of the norm in gradient dynamics. Lastly, under some conditions, we prove that the norm of the learned weight strictly increases on the gradient flow.

Support vector machines (SVMs) play a very dominant role in data classification due to their good generalization performance. However, they suffer from the high computational complexity in the classification phase when there are a considerable number of support vectors (SVs). Then it is desirable to design efficient algorithms in the classification phase to deal with the datasets of real-time pattern recognition systems. To this end, we propose a novel classifier called HMLSVMs (Hierarchical Mixing Linear Support Vector Machines) in this paper, which has a hierarchical structure with a mixing linear SVMs classifier at each node and predicts the label of a sample using only a few hyperplanes. We also give a generalization error bound for the class of locally linear SVMs (LLSVMs) based on the Rademacher theory, which ensures that overfitting can be effectively avoided. Experimental evaluations shows, while maintaining a comparable classification performance to kernel SVMs (KSVMs), the proposed classifier achieves the high efficiency in the classification stage.

Microarray experiments are capable of measuring the expression level of thousands of genes simultaneously. Dealing with this enormous amount of information requires complex computation. Support Vector Machines (SVM) have been widely used with great efficiency to solve classification problems that have high dimension. In this sense, it is plausible to develop new feature selection strategies for microarray data that are associated with this type of classifier. Therefore, we propose, in this paper, a new method for feature selection based on an ordered search process to explore the space of possible subsets.
