Exact Soft Confidence-Weighted learning CoRR, 112, abs/1206.4612 Attributes: eta (:obj:`float`, optional): Mean weight value. Defaults to 0.7. C (:obj:`float`, optional): Initial variance parameter, `C > 0`. Defaults to 1. num_iterations (:obj:`int`, optional): Number of iterations to run the training for. Defaults to 1. random_state (:obj:`int`, optional): The random seed to use with the pseudo-random generator. Defaults to `None`. positive_label (:obj:`int`, optional): The number in the output field that represents the positive label. The value passed should be different than -1. Defaults to 1. class_weight (:obj:`dict`, optional): Represents the relative weight of the labels in the data. Useful for imbalanced classification tasks. Raises: AssertionError: if `positive_label` is equal to -1. """ def _get_alpha(self, m_t, v_t): """Computes the alpha for the CW/SCW algorithms. The `alpha` variable is used to determine the magnitude of update that needs to be applied to the weights. Args: m_t (:obj:`float`): Represents whether there was an error in prediction or not. 1 for no error, -1 otherwise. v_t (:obj:`float`): Represents how far the point was from its actual value. Returns: float: the value for `alpha`.
