New Support Vector Algorithms

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.

Predicting motor vehicle crashes using Support Vector Machine models.

TL;DR: In this article, Support Vector Machine (SVM) models were used for predicting motor vehicle crashes. But, the results showed that SVM models do not overfit the data and offer similar, if not better, performance than Back-Propagation Neural Network (BPNN) models documented in previous research.
