  • Algorithm: Block Coordinate Descent

  • Problem: Binary classification using an SVM.

\(\underset{{\bf{w}}}{\arg\min}f({\bf{w}})=\underset{{\bf{w}}\in\mathbb{R}^{d+1}}{\textrm{ arg min}}\left(\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n\textrm{max}\left(1-y_{i}\left({\bf{w}}^{T}{\bf{x}}_{i}\right),0\right)+\frac{\lambda}{2}\left\Vert {\bf{w}}\right\Vert _{2}^{2}\right)\)

  • Banknote authentication dataset

    • 4 features: variance, skewness and curtosis of wavelet transform of image, and entropy of the image.

      • We use 4 features: \(\bf{X}\) is a \(500\times 4\) matrix containing 500 dataset entries.

    • Target: to predict the right class of the banknote (authentic or forged)

      • Thus, \({\bf{y}}\) is a \(500\times1\) vector containing the classes

Hint:

The subgradient of \(f({\bf{w}})\) is equal to:

\[\begin{split} g({\bf{w}})=\lambda {\bf{w}} +\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n \begin{cases} \begin{array}{c} 0\\ -y_{i}{\bf{x}}_{i} \end{array} & \begin{array}{c} \text{if}\,\,y_{i}{\bf{w}}^T{\bf{x}}_i>1\\ \text{if}\,\,y_{i}{\bf{w}}^T{\bf{x}}_i<1 \end{array}\end{cases}\label{eq:subgrad_svm_expression} \end{split}\]
