TLDR
It is observed that nonlinear SVMs are more effective, though at higher computational cost, than SVM based neural trees, which will provide important guidelines in data mining applications on real world datasets.
Abstract
When performing classification of large set of samples, neural trees (NTs) are preferably used. To circumvent the problem of poor generalization of neural trees, hybrid neural trees have been proposed. Recently hybrid SVM based neural tree has been shown to be an effective binary classifier. In this paper, we examine the performance of SVM based neural trees relative to the nonlinear SVMs. We observe that nonlinear SVMs are more effective, though at higher computational cost. Our conclusions will provide important guidelines in data mining applications on real world datasets

TL;DR: There are several arguments which support the observed high accuracy of SVMs, which are reviewed and numerous examples and proofs of most of the key theorems are given.

A comparison of methods for multiclass support vector machines

TL;DR: Decomposition implementations for two "all-together" multiclass SVM methods are given and it is shown that for large problems methods by considering all data at once in general need fewer support vectors.

Robust linear programming discrimination of two linearly inseparable sets

TL;DR: A single linear programming formulation is proposed which generates a plane that of minimizes an average sum of misclassified points belonging to two disjoint points sets in n-dimensional real space, without the imposition of extraneous normalization constraints that inevitably fail to handle certain cases.
