Twin support vector hypersphere (TSVH) classifier for pattern recognition
Motivated by the support vector data description, a classical one-class support vector machine, and the twin support vector machine classifier, this paper formulates a twin support vector hypersphere (TSVH) classifier, a novel binary support vector machine (SVM) classifier that determines a pair of hyperspheres by solving two related SVM-type quadratic programming problems, each of which is smaller than that of a conventional SVM, which means that this TSVH is more efficient than the classical SVM. In addition, the TSVH successfully avoids matrix inversion compared with the twin support vector machine, which indicates learning algorithms of the SVM can be easily extended to this TSVH. Computational results on several synthetic as well as benchmark data sets indicate that the proposed TSVH is not only faster, but also obtains better generalization.
