SVMreg

Package

weka.classifiers.functions

Synopsis

SVMreg implements the support vector machine for regression. The parameters can be learned using various algorithms. The algorithm is selected by setting the RegOptimizer. The most popular algorithm (RegSMOImproved) is due to Shevade, Keerthi et al and this is the default RegOptimizer.
