Implements John Platt's sequential minimal optimization algorithm for training a support vector classifier.

This implementation globally replaces all missing values and transforms nominal attributes into binary ones. It also normalizes all attributes by default. (In that case the coefficients in the output are based on the normalized data, not the original data --- this is important for interpreting the classifier.)

Multi-class problems are solved using pairwise classification.

To obtain proper probability estimates, use the option that fits logistic regression models to the outputs of the support vector machine. In the multi-class case the predicted probabilities are coupled using Hastie and Tibshirani's pairwise coupling method.

Note: for improved speed normalization should be turned off when operating on SparseInstances.

Valid options are:

 -no-checks
  Turns off all checks - use with caution!
  Turning them off assumes that data is purely numeric, doesn't
  contain any missing values, and has a nominal class. Turning them
  off also means that no header information will be stored if the
  machine is linear. Finally, it also assumes that no instance has
  a weight equal to 0.
  (default: checks on)

 -C <double>
  The complexity constant C. (default 1)

 -N
  Whether to 0=normalize/1=standardize/2=neither.
  (default 0=normalize)

 -I
  Use MIminimax feature space.

 -L <double>
  The tolerance parameter. (default 1.0e-3)

 -P <double>
  The epsilon for round-off error. (default 1.0e-12)

 -M
  Fit logistic models to SVM outputs.

 -V <double>
  The number of folds for the internal cross-validation. 
  (default -1, use training data)

 -W <double>
  The random number seed. (default 1)

 -K <classname and parameters>
  The Kernel to use.
  (default: weka.classifiers.functions.supportVector.PolyKernel)

 Options specific to kernel weka.classifiers.mi.supportVector.MIPolyKernel:

 -no-checks
  Turns off all checks - use with caution!
  (default: checks on)

 -C <num>
  The size of the cache (a prime number), 0 for full cache and 
  -1 to turn it off.
  (default: 250007)

 -E <num>
  The Exponent to use.
  (default: 1.0)

 -L
  Use lower-order terms.
