Fast rates for support vector machines using Gaussian kernels
For binary classification we establish learning rates up to the order of
for support vector machines (SVMs) with hinge loss and Gaussian RBF
kernels. These rates are in terms of two assumptions on the considered
distributions: Tsybakov's noise assumption to establish a small estimation
error, and a new geometric noise condition which is used to bound the
approximation error. Unlike previously proposed concepts for bounding the
approximation error, the geometric noise assumption does not employ any
smoothness assumption.Comment: Published at http://dx.doi.org/10.1214/009053606000001226 in the

One-Class Classification: Taxonomy of Study and Review of Techniques
One-class classification (OCC) algorithms aim to build classification models
when the negative class is either absent, poorly sampled or not well defined.
This unique situation constrains the learning of efficient classifiers by
defining class boundary just with the knowledge of positive class. The OCC
problem has been considered and applied under many research themes, such as
outlier/novelty detection and concept learning. In this paper we present a
unified view of the general problem of OCC by presenting a taxonomy of study
for OCC problems, which is based on the availability of training data,
algorithms used and the application domains applied. We further delve into each
of the categories of the proposed taxonomy and present a comprehensive
literature review of the OCC algorithms, techniques and methodologies with a
focus on their significance, limitations and applications. We conclude our
paper by discussing some open research problems in the field of OCC and present
our vision for future research.Comment: 24 pages + 11 pages of references, 8 figure
