Abstract

In order to get good hyperparameters of SVM, user needs to conduct extensive cross-validation such as leave-one-out (LOO) cross-validation. Alpha seeding is often used to reduce the cost of SVM training. Compared with the existing schemes of alpha seeding, a new efficient alpha seeding method is proposed. Through some examples, its good performance has been proved. Interpretation from both geometrical and mathematical view is also given.
