LIBSVM: A library for support vector machines

TLDR
Issues such as solving SVM optimization problems theoretical convergence multiclass classification probability estimates and parameter selection are discussed in detail.
Abstract
LIBSVM is a library for Support Vector Machines (SVMs). We have been actively developing this package since the year 2000. The goal is to help users to easily apply SVM to their applications. LIBSVM has gained wide popularity in machine learning and many other areas. In this article, we present all implementation details of LIBSVM. Issues such as solving SVM optimization problems theoretical convergence multiclass classification probability estimates and parameter selection are discussed in detail.

The pyramid match kernel: discriminative classification with sets of image features

TL;DR: A new fast kernel function is presented which maps unordered feature sets to multi-resolution histograms and computes a weighted histogram intersection in this space and is shown to be positive-definite, making it valid for use in learning algorithms whose optimal solutions are guaranteed only for Mercer kernels.

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.
