Large-Scale Multiclass Support Vector Machine Training via Euclidean Projection onto the Simplex
2014
Dual decomposition methods are the current state-of-the-art for training multiclass formulations of Support Vector Machines (SVMs). At every iteration, dual decomposition methods update a small subset of dual variables by solving a restricted optimization problem. In this paper, we propose an exact and efficient method for solving the restricted problem. In our method, the restricted problem is reduced to the well-known problem of Euclidean projection onto the positive simplex, which we can solve exactly in expected O(k) time, where k is the number of classes. We demonstrate that our method empirically achieves state-of-the-art convergence on several large-scale high-dimensional datasets.
