Constructor Detail

LibLinearRegressionTrainer

public LibLinearRegressionTrainer()

Creates a trainer using the default values (L2R_L2LOSS_SVR, 1, 1000, 0.1, 0.1).

LibLinearRegressionTrainer

public LibLinearRegressionTrainer(LinearRegressionType trainerType)

LibLinearRegressionTrainer

public LibLinearRegressionTrainer(LinearRegressionType trainerType,
                                  double cost,
                                  int maxIterations,
                                  double terminationCriterion,
                                  double epsilon)

Creates a trainer for a LibLinear model

Parameters:

trainerType - Loss function and optimisation method combination.

cost - Cost penalty for each incorrectly classified training point.

maxIterations - The maximum number of dataset iterations.

terminationCriterion - How close does the optimisation function need to be before terminating that subproblem (usually set to 0.1).

epsilon - The insensitivity of the regression loss to small differences.
