Fast Combinatorial Algorithm for Tightly Separating Hyperplanes

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNIP,volume 7655))

Abstract

We propose a new algorithm for finding separating hyperplanes between two data sets with respect to the L  ∞  norm. The algorithm is an adaptation of a previous result on enclosing hyperplanes. Our main result is that the existing algorithm for finding enclosures can also be applied to find separations provided the two data sets cannot be separated in a space of lower dimension.
