1 Support Vector Machines Hypothesis Space variable size deterministic continuous parameters Learning Algorithm linear and quadratic programming eager batch SVMs combine three important ideas Apply optimization algorithms from Operations Reseach (Linear Programming and Quadratic Programming) Implicit feature transformation using kernels Control of overfitting by maximizing the margin

2 White Lie Warning This first introduction to SVMs describes a special case with simplifying assumptions We will revisit SVMs later in the quarter and remove the assumptions The material you are about to see does t describe real SVMs

3 Linear Programming The linear programming problem is the following: find w minimize c w subject to w a i = b i for i = 1,, m w j 0 for j = 1,, n There are fast algorithms for solving linear programs including the simplex algorithm and Karmarkar s s algorithm

4 Formulating LTU Learning as Linear Programming Encode classes as {+1, 1} LTU: h(x) = +1 if w x 0 = 11 otherwise An example (x( i,y i ) is classified correctly by h if y i w x i > 0 Basic idea: The constraints on the linear programming problem will be of the form y i w x i > 0 We need to introduce two more steps to convert this into the standard format for a linear program

5 Converting to Standard LP Form Step 1: Convert to equality constraints by using slack variables Introduce one slack variable s i for each training example x i and require that s i 0: y i w x i s i = 0 Step 2: Make all variables positive by subtracting pairs Replace each w j be a difference of two variables: w j = u j v j, where u j, v j 0 y i (u v) x i s i = 0 Linear program: Find s i, u j, v j Minimize ( objective function) Subject to: y i ( j (u j v j )x ij ) s i = 0 s i 0, u j 0, v j 0 The linear program will have a solution iff the points are linearly separable

6 Example 30 random data points labeled according to the line x 2 = 1 + x 1 Pink line is true classifier Blue line is the linear programming fit

7 What Happens with Non-Separable Data? Bad News: Linear Program is Infeasible

8 Higher Dimensional Spaces Theorem: For any data set, there exists a mapping Φ to a higher-dimensional space such that the data is linearly separable Φ(X) ) = (φ( 1 (x), φ 2 (x),, φ D (x)) Example: Map to quadratic space x = (x 1, x 2 ) (just two features) Φ(x) ) = (x 2 1, 2 x 1 x 2,x 2 2, 2 x 1, 2 x 2, 1) compute linear separator in this space

9 Drawback of this approach The number of features increases rapidly This makes the linear program much slower to solve

10 Kernel Trick A dot product between two higher- dimensional mappings can sometimes be implemented by a kernel function K(x i, x j ) = Φ(x i ) Φ(x j ) Example: Quadratic Kernel K(x i, x j ) = (x i x j +1) 2 = (x i1 x j1 + x i2 x j2 +1) 2 = x 2 i1x 2 j1 +2x i1 x i2 x j1 x j2 + x 2 i2x 2 j2 +2x i1 x j1 +2x i2 x j2 +1 = (x 2 i1, 2 x i1 x i2,x 2 i2, 2 x i1, 2 x i2, 1) (x 2 j1, 2 x j1 x j2,x 2 j2, 2 x j1, 2 x j2, 1) = Φ(x i ) Φ(x j )

11 Idea Reformulate the LTU linear program so that it only involves dot products between pairs of training examples Then we can use kernels to compute these dot products Running time of algorithm will t depend on number of dimensions D of high- dimensional space

12 Reformulating the LTU Linear Program Claim: In online Perceptron, w can be written as Proof: w = j α j y j x j Each weight update has the form w t := w t-1 + η g i,t g i,t is computed as g i,t i,t = error it y i x i (error it = 1 if x i misclassified in iteration t; 0 otherwise) Hence w t = w 0 + t i η error it y i x i But w 0 = (0, 0,,, 0), so w t = t i η error it y i x i w t = i ( t η error it ) y i x i w t = i α i y i x i

13 Rewriting the Linear Separator Using Dot Products w x i = X j α j y j x j x i = X j α j y j (x j x i ) Change of variables instead of optimizing w,, optimize {α{ j }. Rewrite the constraint y i w x i > 0 as y i j α j y j (x j x i ) > 0 or j α j y j y i (x j x i ) > 0

14 The Linear Program becomes Find {α{ j } minimize ( objective function) subject to j α j y j y i (x j x i ) > 0 α j 0 Notes: The weight α j tells us how important example x j is. If α j is n-zero, then x j is called a support vector To classify a new data point x,, we take its dot product with the support vectors j α j y j (x j x) ) > 0?

15 Kernel Version of Linear Program Find {α{ j } minimize ( objective function) subject to j α j y j y i K(x j,x i ) > 0 α j 0 Classify new x according to j α j y j K(x j,x)) > 0?

16 Two support vectors (blue) with α 1 = and α 2 = Equivalent to the line x 2 = x 1 *1.341

17 Solving the Non-Separable Case with Cubic Polymial Kernel

18 Dot product K(x i, x j ) = x i x j Kernels Polymial of degree d K(x i, x j ) = (x( i x j + 1) d Gaussian with scale σ K(x i, x j ) = exp( x i x j 2 /σ 2 ) Polymials often give strange boundaries. Gaussians generally work well.

19 Gaussian kernel with σ 2 = 4 The gaussian kernel is equivalent to an infinite- dimensional feature space!

20 Evaluation of SVMs Criterion Perc Logistic LDA Trees Nets NNbr SVM Mixed data Missing values somewhat Outliers Motone transformations somewhat Scalability Irrelevant inputs somewhat * Linear combinations somewhat Interpretable ** Accurate * = dot product kernel with absolute value penalty ** = dot product kernel

21 Support Vector Machines Summary Advantages of SVMs variable-sized hypothesis space polymial-time exact optimization rather than approximate methods unlike decision trees and neural networks Kernels allow very flexible hypotheses Disadvantages of SVMs Must choose kernel and kernel parameters: Gaussian, σ Very large problems are computationally intractable quadratic in number of examples problems with more than 20,000 examples are very difficult to solve exactly Batch algorithm

22 SVMs Unify LTUs and Nearest Neighbor With Gaussian kernel compute distance to a set of support vector nearest neighbors transform through a gaussian (nearer neighbors get bigger votes) take weighted sum of those distances for each class classify to the class with most votes
