Kernels for SVMs and other kernel-based classifiers

Kernels is a project on kernel methods (spectral string kernels, string mismatch kernels). It only supports "Mismatch String Kernels" for the moment. I've made 2 implmentations: C++ and Pythonic.

Dependencies (only for C++ version)

• cmake (the build tool)
• doxygen (optional, except if you need to generate documentation)
• boost (for the algebra involved)

Build (only C++ version)

      cmake . && make all

Examples

Python example

To run a python example, type:

      python python/trie.py

C++ example

To run the a C++ example, type:

      ./bin/main 2 4 0 data/dummy_data.txt data/dummy_kernel.txt

Testing

Python tests

To run the python tests (you'll need nosetests test tool), type:

      nosetests -v python/trie.py

C++ tests

To run the C++ tests (you'll need boost component unit_test_framework), type:

      ./bin/test

kernels's Issues

python/ (bindings for c++ code + slow re-implementation from scratch) is broken!

C++ code gives wrong results. We should re-code the C++ version to match the pythonic.
