2 Support Vector Machines Here we approach the two-class classification problem in a direct way: We try and find a plane that separates the classes in feature space. If we cannot, we get creative in two ways: We soften what we mean by separates, and We enrich and enlarge the feature space so that separation is possible. 1/21

3 What is a Hyperplane? A hyperplane in p dimensions is a flat a dimension p 1. ne subspace of In general the equation for a hyperplane has the form X X p X p =0 In p = 2 dimensions a hyperplane is a line. If 0 = 0, the hyperplane goes through the origin, otherwise not. The vector =( 1, 2,, p) is called the normal vector it points in a direction orthogonal to the surface of a hyperplane. 2/21

7 Classification Using a Separating Hyperplane

8 Separating Hyperplanes X X X X 1 If f(x) = X p X p,thenf(x) > 0 for points on one side of the hyperplane, and f(x) < 0 for points on the other. If we code the colored points as Y i = +1 for blue, say, and Y i = 1 for mauve, then if Y i f(x i ) > 0 for all i, f(x) =0 defines a separating hyperplane. 4/21

9 Maximal Margin Classifier Among all separating hyperplanes, find the one that makes the biggest gap or margin between the two classes. X Constrained optimization problem maximize 0, 1,..., p M subject to px j=1 2 j =1, y i ( x i p x ip ) M for all i =1,...,N X1 5/21

35 The SVM as a Penalization Method The standard SVM: min 0,, 1 2 k P k2 + C n i i=1 subject to i 0,y i ( 0 + x > i ) 1 i,i=1, 2,,n. (1) where =( 1, 2,, n ) are the slack variables and C>0 is a constant. The constraint of (1) can be written as Then Objective function: 1 2 k k2 + C i [1 y i ( 0 + x > i )] +, i =1, 2,,n nx i=1 i 1 2 k k2 + C nx [1 y i ( 0 + x > i )] + If and only if i =[1 y i ( 0 + x > i )] +, the above inequality takes =. i=1

36 The SVM as a Penalization Method Then the solution of 0, in (1) is the same as the solution of the following optimization problem : min 0, 1 2 k k2 + C nx [1 y i ( 0 + x > i )] + i=1 Let =1/C,The above optimization problem is equivalent to min 0, nx [1 y i ( 0 + x > i )] + + k k 2. (2) 2 i=1 This has the form loss + penalty, which is a familiar paradigm in function estimation.

37 Implication of the Hinge Loss Consider the expectation of the loss function: E(`(yf) x) =`(f) Pr(y =1 x) +`( f) Pr(y = 1 x) Minimize expected loss when `(.) is hinge loss or 0-1 loss, obtain: f(x) =sign Pr(y =1 x) loss is the true loss function in binary classification. But the following optimization problem is di cult. 1 np min I [yi f(x f n i )<0] i=1 Since the solution to minimize the expected loss is the same, the hinge loss is also called the surrogate loss function. Compared with the perceptron loss, the hinge loss is not only classified correctly, but also the loss is only 0 when the confidence is high enough, that is, the hinge loss has higher requirements for learning.

38 Compare with other commonly used loss functions SVM Hinge Loss: [1 yf(x)] + Logistic Regression Loss: log[1 + e yf(x) ] Squared Error: [y f(x)] 2 =[1 yf(x)] 2 Huberized 8 Hinge Loss: < 0, yf > 1 `(yf) = (1 yf) 2 /(2 ), 1 <yfapple 1 : 1 t /2, yf apple 1. where >0 is a pre-specfied constant. Examination of the hinge loss function shows that it is reasonable for two-class classification, when compared to Logistic loss and Squared error. Logistic loss has similar tails as the SVM loss, but there is never zero penalty for points well inside their margin. Squared error gives a quadratic penalty, and points well inside their own margin have a strong influence on the model as well. Rosset and Zhu (2007) proposed a Huberized hinge loss, whichisvery similar to hinge loss in shape.

39 Hinge Loss and Huberized Loss As the decreases, the hubrized loss gets closer to the hinge loss. In fact, when! 0, the limit of hubrized loss is the hinge loss. Unlike the hinge loss, the huberized loss function is di erentiable everywhere. It is easy to prove that the huberized loss is satisfied arg min E[`(yf) x] =2Pr(y =1 x) f E(y x) > 0, sign[pr(y =1 x) 1 2 ] > 0. 1=E(y x) Rosset and Ji Zhu(2007): In the model with logistic loss, huberized loss, and square hinge loss with `1-penalty, the impact of outliers on the received huberized loss model is minimal.

40 `1-SVM The penalty of SVM is called the ridge penalty. It is well known that this shrinkage has the e ect of controlling the variances of ˆ; Hence possibly improves the fitted models prediction accuracy, especially when there are many highly correlated features. The SVM uses all variables in classification, which could be a great disadvantage in high-dimensional classification. Apply lasso penalty (`1-norm) to the SVM, Consider the optimization problem(`1-svm) 1 np min [1 y i ( 0 + x > i )] 0, n + + k k 1. i=1? the `1-SVM is able to automatically discard irrelevant features.? In the presence of many noise variables, the `1-SVM has significant advantages over the standard SVM.

41 `1-SVM The optimization problem of `1-SVM is a linear program with many constraints, and e cient algorithms can be complex. The solution paths can have many jumps, and show many discontinuities. For this reason, some authors prefer to replace the usual hinge loss with other smooth loss function, such as square hinge loss, huberized hinge loss, etc. (Zhu, Rosset, Hastie, 2004). The number of variables selected by the `1-norm penalty is upper bounded by the sample size n. For highly correlated and relevant variables, the `1-norm penalty tends to select only one or a few of them.

42 The hybrid huberized SVM(HHSVM) Li Wang, Ji Zhu and Hui Zou(2007) apply the elastic-net penalty to the SVM and propose the HHSVM: min ( 0, ) nx i=1 `(y i ( 0 + x > i )) + 1 k k k k2 2. (3) Where the loss function is huberized hinge loss: 8 < 0, yf > 1 `(yf) = (1 yf) 2 /(2 ), 1 <yfapple 1 : 1 yf /2, yf apple 1, and >0 is a pre-specified constant. The delfault choice for is 2 unless specified otherwise.

43 The hybrid huberized SVM(HHSVM) The advantage of Elastic-net penalty: 1. The elastic-net penalty retains the variable selection feature of the `1-norm penalty, and the number of selected variables is no longer bounded by n. 2. The elastic-net penalty tends to provide similar estimated coe cients for highly correlated variables. Theorem Let ˆ0 and ˆ denote the solution for problem (3). For any pair (j, j 0 ),wehave ˆj ˆj0 apple 1 kx j x j 0k = nx x ij x ij 0 i=1 If the input vector x j and x j 0 are centered and normalized, then ˆj ˆj0 apple 1 p n p kx j x j 0k = 2(1 ) 2 2 Where is the sample correlation between x j and x j 0.

44 The hybrid huberized SVM(HHSVM) GCD algorithm(yi Yang and Hui Zou(2014)) Define r i = y i ( 0 + x > i ), p 1, 2 ( j)= 1 j j, F ( j 0, ) = 1 n nx `(r i + y i x ij ( j j)) + p 1, ( 2 j) (4) i=1 Approximate the F function in (4) by a penalized quadratic function defined as Q( j 0, ) = 1 n nx `(r i )+ 1 n i=1 nx `0(r i )y i x ij ( j i=1 + 1 ( j j) 2 + p 1, 2 ( j) j) (5)

45 The hybrid huberized SVM(HHSVM) GCD algorithm(yi Yang and Hui Zou(2014)) By a simple soft-thresholding rule, can easily solve the minimizer of (5): np S( 2 1 j ˆC j = arg min Q( j 0, ) n `0(r i )y i x ij, 1) i=1 (6) =. 2/ + 2 j where S(z,t) =( z t) + sgn(z). Similarly, consider minimizing a quadratic approximation Q( 0 0, ) = 1 nx `(r i )+ 1 nx `0(r i )y i ( 0 0)+ 1 ( 0 0) 2. n n i=1 which has a minimizer ˆC 0 i=1 = arg min Q( 0 0, ) = np `0(r i )y i. n i=1 (7) (8)

48 Feature Expansion Enlarge the space of features by including transformations; e.g. X1 2, X3 1, X 1X 2, X 1 X2 2,... Hence go from a p-dimensional space to a M>pdimensional space. Fit a support-vector classifier in the enlarged space. This results in non-linear decision boundaries in the original space. 11 / 21

49 Feature Expansion Enlarge the space of features by including transformations; e.g. X1 2, X3 1, X 1X 2, X 1 X2 2,... Hence go from a p-dimensional space to a M>pdimensional space. Fit a support-vector classifier in the enlarged space. This results in non-linear decision boundaries in the original space. Example: Suppose we use (X 1,X 2,X 2 1,X2 2,X 1X 2 ) instead of just (X 1,X 2 ). Then the decision boundary would be of the form X X X X X 1 X 2 =0 This leads to nonlinear decision boundaries in the original space (quadratic conic sections). 11 / 21

53 Nonlinearities and Kernels Polynomials (especially high-dimensional ones) get wild rather fast. There is a more elegant and controlled way to introduce nonlinearities in support-vector classifiers through the use of kernels. Before we discuss these, we must understand the role of inner products in support-vector classifiers. 13 / 21

55 Inner products and support vectors px hx i,x i 0i = x ij x i 0 j j=1 inner product between vectors The linear support vector classifier can be represented as nx f(x) = 0 + i hx, x i i n parameters i=1 14 / 21

56 Inner products and support vectors px hx i,x i 0i = x ij x i 0 j j=1 inner product between vectors The linear support vector classifier can be represented as nx f(x) = 0 + i hx, x i i n parameters i=1 To estimate the parameters 1,..., n and 0, all we need are the n 2 inner products hx i,x i 0i between all pairs of training observations. 14 / 21

57 Inner products and support vectors px hx i,x i 0i = x ij x i 0 j j=1 inner product between vectors The linear support vector classifier can be represented as nx f(x) = 0 + i hx, x i i n parameters i=1 To estimate the parameters 1,..., n and 0, all we need are the n 2 inner products hx i,x i 0i between all pairs of training observations. It turns out that most of the ˆ i can be zero: f(x) = 0 + X i2s ˆ i hx, x i i S is the support set of indices i such that ˆ i > 0. [see slide 8] 14 / 21

71 Support Vector versus Logistic Regression? With f(x) = X p X p can rephrase support-vector classifier optimization as 8 < nx minimize max [0, 1 y 0, 1,..., p : i f(x i )] + i=1 px j=1 2 j 9 = ; Loss SVM Loss Logistic Regression Loss This has the form loss plus penalty. The loss is known as the hinge loss. Very similar to loss in logistic regression (negative log-likelihood) y i( 0 + 1x i px ip) 20 / 21

72 Which to use: SVM or Logistic Regression When classes are (nearly) separable, SVM does better than LR. So does LDA. When not, LR (with ridge penalty) and SVM very similar. If you wish to estimate probabilities, LR is the choice. For nonlinear boundaries, kernel SVMs are popular. Can use kernels with LR and LDA as well, but computations are more expensive. 21 / 21
