<p>
A better approach is rather to try to define a large margin between
the two classes (if they are well separated from the beginning).
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>
Thus, we wish to find a margin \( M \) with \( \boldsymbol{w} \) normalized to
\( \vert\vert \boldsymbol{w}\vert\vert =1 \) subject to the condition
$$
y_i(\boldsymbol{w}^T\boldsymbol{x}_i+b) \geq M \hspace{0.1cm}\forall i=1,2,\dots, p.
$$
All points are thus at a signed distance from the decision boundary defined by the line \( L \). The parameters \( b \) and \( w_1 \) and \( w_2 \) define this line.
<p>
We seek thus the largest value \( M \) defined by
$$
\frac{1}{\vert \vert \boldsymbol{w}\vert\vert}y_i(\boldsymbol{w}^T\boldsymbol{x}_i+b) \geq M \hspace{0.1cm}\forall i=1,2,\dots, n,
$$
or just
$$
y_i(\boldsymbol{w}^T\boldsymbol{x}_i+b) \geq M\vert \vert \boldsymbol{w}\vert\vert \hspace{0.1cm}\forall i.
$$
If we scale the equation so that \( \vert \vert \boldsymbol{w}\vert\vert = 1/M \), we have to find the minimum of
\( \boldsymbol{w}^T\boldsymbol{w}=\vert \vert \boldsymbol{w}\vert\vert \) (the norm) subject to the condition
$$
y_i(\boldsymbol{w}^T\boldsymbol{x}_i+b) \geq 1 \hspace{0.1cm}\forall i.
$$
<p>
We have thus defined our margin as the invers of the norm of
\( \boldsymbol{w} \). We want to minimize the norm in order to have a as large as
possible margin \( M \). Before we proceed, we need to remind ourselves
about Lagrangian multipliers.
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.
