NAME
pkoptsvm - program to optimize parameters for SVM classification
SYNOPSIS
pkoptsvm -t training [ options ] [ advanced options ]
DESCRIPTION
pkoptsvm The support vector machine depends on several parameters. Ideally, these parameters should be optimized for each classification problem. In case of a radial basis kernel function, two important parameters are {cost} and {gamma}. The utility pkoptsvm can optimize these two parameters, based on an accuracy assessment (the Kappa value). If an input test set ( -i ) is provided, it is used for the accuracy assessment. If not, the accuracy assessment is based on a cross validation ( -cv ) of the training sample.
The optimization routine uses a grid search. The initial and final values of the parameters can be set with -cc startvalue -cc endvalue and -g startvalue -g endvalue for cost and gamma respectively. The search uses a multiplicative step for iterating the parameters (set with the options -stepcc and -stepg ). An often used approach is to define a relatively large multiplicative step first (e.g 10) to obtain an initial estimate for both parameters. The estimate can then be optimized by defining a smaller step (>1) with constrained start and end values for the parameters cost and gamma.

-i filename , --input filename
input test vector file
-cc startvalue -cc endvalue , --ccost startvalue --ccost endvalue
min and max boundaries the parameter C of C-SVC, epsilon-SVR, and nu-SVR (optional: initial value)
-g startvalue -g endvalue , --gamma startvalue --gamma endvalue
min max boundaries for gamma in kernel function (optional: initial value)
-step stepsize , --step stepsize
multiplicative step for ccost and gamma in GRID search
-v level , --verbose level
use 1 to output intermediate results for plotting
