Operator Reference
add_sample_class_svm (Operator)
add_sample_class_svm — Add a training sample to the training data of a support vector
machine.
Signature
Description
add_sample_class_svm adds a training sample to the support
vector machine (SVM) given by SVMHandle. The training
sample is given by Features and Class.
Features is the feature vector of the sample, and
consequently must be a real vector of length NumFeatures,
as specified in create_class_svm. Class is the
target of the sample, which must be in the range of 0 to
NumClasses-1 (see create_class_svm). In the special
case of 'novelty-detection' the class is to be set to 0 as
only one class is assumed.
Before the SVM can be trained with
train_class_svm, training samples must be added to the
SVM with add_sample_class_svm. The usage of support vectors
of an already trained SVM as training samples is described in
train_class_svm.
The number of currently stored training samples can be queried with
get_sample_num_class_svm. Stored training samples can be
read out again with get_sample_class_svm.
Normally, it is useful to save the training samples in a file with
write_samples_class_svm to facilitate reusing the samples
and to facilitate that, if necessary, new training samples can be
added to the data set, and hence to facilitate that a newly
created SVM can be trained with the extended data set.
Execution Information
- Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
- Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
- Processed without parallelization.
This operator modifies the state of the following input parameter:
During execution of this operator, access to the value of this parameter must be synchronized if it is used across multiple threads.
Parameters
SVMHandle (input_control, state is modified) class_svm → (handle)
SVM handle.
Features (input_control) real-array → (real)
Feature vector of the training sample to be stored.
Class (input_control) number → (integer / real)
Class of the training sample to be stored.
Result
If the parameters are valid the operator
add_sample_class_svm returns the value 2 (
H_MSG_TRUE)
. If necessary,
an exception is raised.
