TLDR
A new class of support vector algorithms for regression and classification that eliminates one of the other free parameters of the algorithm: the accuracy parameter in the regression case, and the regularization constant C in the classification case.
Abstract
We propose a new class of support vector algorithms for regression and classification. In these algorithms, a parameter ν lets one effectively control the number of support vectors. While this can be useful in its own right, the parameterization has the additional benefit of enabling us to eliminate one of the other free parameters of the algorithm: the accuracy parameter epsilon in the regression case, and the regularization constant C in the classification case. We describe the algorithms, give some theoretical results concerning the meaning and the choice of ν, and report experimental results.

Improving peptide identification in proteome analysis by a two-dimensional retention time filtering approach.

TL;DR: The combination of a two-dimensional peptide separation scheme based on reversed-phase and ion-pair reversed phase HPLC with a computational method to model and predict retention times in both dimensions facilitated an increase in true positive peptides upon lowering mass spectrometric scoring thresholds and concomitantly filtering out false positives on the basis of predicted retention times.
