Liblinear使用格式

我通过以下nuget包在我的C#代码中使用liblinear的.NET实现: https://www.nuget.org/packages/Liblinear/

但是在liblinear的自述文件中,x的格式是:

struct problem描述了问题:

    struct problem
    {
        int l, n;
        int *y;
        struct feature_node **x;
        double bias;
    };

where `l` is the number of training data. If bias >= 0, we assume
that one additional feature is added to the end of each data
instance. `n` is the number of feature (including the bias feature
if bias >= 0). `y` is an array containing the target values. (integers
in classification, real numbers in regression) And `x` is an array
of pointers, each of which points to a sparse representation (array
of feature_node) of one training vector.

For example, if we have the following training data:

    LABEL       ATTR1   ATTR2   ATTR3   ATTR4   ATTR5
    -----       -----   -----   -----   -----   -----
    1           0       0.1     0.2     0       0
    2           0       0.1     0.3    -1.2     0
    1           0.4     0       0       0       0
    2           0       0.1     0       1.4     0.5
    3          -0.1    -0.2     0.1     1.1     0.1

and bias = 1, then the components of problem are:

    l = 5
    n = 6

    y -> 1 2 1 2 3

    x -> [ ] -> (2,0.1) (3,0.2) (6,1) (-1,?)
         [ ] -> (2,0.1) (3,0.3) (4,-1.2) (6,1) (-1,?)
         [ ] -> (1,0.4) (6,1) (-1,?)
         [ ] -> (2,0.1) (4,1.4) (5,0.5) (6,1) (-1,?)
         [ ] -> (1,-0.1) (2,-0.2) (3,0.1) (4,1.1) (5,0.1) (6,1) (-1,?)

但是,在显示java实现的示例中: https://gist.github.com/hodzanassredin/6682771

problem.x <- [|
                        [|new FeatureNode(1,0.); new FeatureNode(2,1.)|]
                        [|new FeatureNode(1,2.); new FeatureNode(2,0.)|]
                    |]// feature nodes
problem.y <- [|1.;2.|] // target values

这意味着他的数据集是:

1 0 1
2 2 0

因此,他没有按照liblinear的稀疏格式存储节点。对于liblinear实现,是否有人知道x的正确格式?

1 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:1)

虽然它没有完全解决您提到的图书馆,但我可以为您提供另一种选择。该 Accord.NET Framework最近在其机器学习中融入了所有LIBLINEAR算法 命名空间。它也是available through NuGet

在此库中,从内存数据创建线性支持向量机的直接语法是

// Create a simple binary AND
// classification problem:

double[][] problem =
{
    //             a    b    a + b
    new double[] { 0,   0,     0    },
    new double[] { 0,   1,     0    },
    new double[] { 1,   0,     0    },
    new double[] { 1,   1,     1    },
};

// Get the two first columns as the problem
// inputs and the last column as the output

// input columns
double[][] inputs = problem.GetColumns(0, 1);

// output column
int[] outputs = problem.GetColumn(2).ToInt32();

// However, SVMs expect the output value to be
// either -1 or +1. As such, we have to convert
// it so the vector contains { -1, -1, -1, +1 }:
//
outputs = outputs.Apply(x => x == 0 ? -1 : 1);

创建问题后,可以使用

学习线性SVM
// Create a new linear-SVM for two inputs (a and b)
SupportVectorMachine svm = new SupportVectorMachine(inputs: 2);

// Create a L2-regularized L2-loss support vector classification
var teacher = new LinearDualCoordinateDescent(svm, inputs, outputs)
{
    Loss = Loss.L2,
    Complexity = 1000,
    Tolerance = 1e-5
};

// Learn the machine
double error = teacher.Run(computeError: true);

// Compute the machine's answers for the learned inputs
int[] answers = inputs.Apply(x => Math.Sign(svm.Compute(x)));

但是,假设您的数据已经在内存中。如果您希望从中加载数据 磁盘,来自libsvm稀疏格式的文件,您可以使用框架的SparseReader class。 有关如何使用它的示例如下:

// Suppose we are going to read a sparse sample file containing
//  samples which have an actual dimension of 4. Since the samples
//  are in a sparse format, each entry in the file will probably
//  have a much smaller number of elements.
// 
int sampleSize = 4;

// Create a new Sparse Sample Reader to read any given file,
//  passing the correct dense sample size in the constructor
// 
SparseReader reader = new SparseReader(file, Encoding.Default, sampleSize);

// Declare a vector to obtain the label
//  of each of the samples in the file
// 
int[] labels = null;

// Declare a vector to obtain the description (or comments)
//  about each of the samples in the file, if present.
// 
string[] descriptions = null;

// Read the sparse samples and store them in a dense vector array
double[][] samples = reader.ReadToEnd(out labels, out descriptions);

之后,可以使用sampleslabels向量作为问题的输入和输出, 分别

我希望它有所帮助。

免责声明:我是这个图书馆的作者。我真诚希望回答这个问题 可以对OP有用,因为不久前我也遇到了同样的问题。如果主持人认为 这看起来像垃圾邮件,随意删除。但是,我只是张贴这个,因为我认为它可能 帮助别人。在搜索现有的C#时,我甚至错误地遇到了这个问题 LIBSVM的实现,而不是LIBLINEAR。
