<p>
Consider a function of three independent variables \( f(x,y,z) \) . For the function \( f \) to be an
extreme we have
$$
df=0.
$$
A necessary and sufficient condition is
$$
\frac{\partial f}{\partial x} =\frac{\partial f}{\partial y}=\frac{\partial f}{\partial z}=0,
$$
due to
$$
df = \frac{\partial f}{\partial x}dx+\frac{\partial f}{\partial y}dy+\frac{\partial f}{\partial z}dz.
$$
In many problems the variables \( x,y,z \) are often subject to constraints (such as those above for the margin)
so that they are no longer all independent. It is possible at least in principle to use each
constraint to eliminate one variable
and to proceed with a new and smaller set of independent varables.
There are however problems with this approach, although it looks
pretty straightforward to implement. When running the above code, we see that we can easily end up with many diffeent lines which separate the two classes.
<p>
The use of so-called Lagrangian multipliers is an alternative technique when the elimination
of variables is incovenient or undesirable. Assume that we have an equation of constraint on
the variables \( x,y,z \)
$$
\phi(x,y,z) = 0,
$$
resulting in
$$
d\phi = \frac{\partial \phi}{\partial x}dx+\frac{\partial \phi}{\partial y}dy+\frac{\partial \phi}{\partial z}dz =0.
$$
Now we cannot set anymore
$$
\frac{\partial f}{\partial x} =\frac{\partial f}{\partial y}=\frac{\partial f}{\partial z}=0,
$$
if \( df=0 \) is wanted
because there are now only two independent variables! Assume \( x \) and \( y \) are the independent
variables.
Then \( dz \) is no longer arbitrary.
For small
gaps between the entries, we may also end up needing many iterations
before the solutions converge and if the data cannot be separated
properly into two distinct classes, we may not experience a converge
at all.
