SPIDER The Spider Objects

ONE_VS_REST object


   A=ONE_VS_REST(C,H) returns an one_vs_rest object which trains algorithm 
   C on sub problems of type class i versus all other classes, 
   and is initialized with hyperparameters H. The classifiers are combined
   by outputting the class with the largest positive output (this assumes
   that classifiers output real values indicating confidence rather than
   just +1,-1)
  
   Model
    child=svm            -- classifier to use for each sub-problem
  
   Methods:
    train, test, get_w  
   Example:
   
  c1=[-1,1];c2=[1,1];c3=[0,-1];
   X1= randn(50,2)+repmat(c1,50,1);
   X2= randn(50,2)+repmat(c2,50,1);
   X3= randn(50,2)+repmat(c3,50,1);
     note the class label format!
   Y1= [ones(50,1),-ones(50,1),-ones(50,1)];
   Y2= [-ones(50,1),ones(50,1),-ones(50,1)];
   Y3= [-ones(50,1),-ones(50,1),ones(50,1)];
   
   d=data([X1;X2;X3],[Y1;Y2;Y3]);
   
   [r,a]=train(one_vs_rest(svm(kernel('rbf',2))),d)
     Test class centers
   dtest=data([c1;c2;c3]);
   rtest=test(a,dtest)
