Abstract:

Nonparallel support vector machine (NSVM) is the extension of support vector machine (SVM), and it has been widely studied in recent years. The NSVM constructs nonparallel support hyperplanes for each class, which can describe the distribution of different classes, thus applicable to wider problems. However, the study of the relationship between NSVM and SVM is rarely. And to now, there is no NSVM could be degenerate or equivalent to the standard SVM. We start from this view of point, and construct a new NSVM model. Our model not only can be reduced to the standard SVM, preserves the sparsity and kernel scalability, but also can describe the distribution of the different classes. At last, we compare our model with start-of-art SVMs and NSVMs on benchmark datasets, and confirm the superiority of proposed NSVM.
