<h2 id="___sec13" class="anchor">A better approach </h2>
|
|
|
|
<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).
|
|
|
|
<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.
