Namespace: Accord.Statistics.Kernels
Assembly: Accord.Statistics (in Accord.Statistics.dll) Version: 3.8.0

Syntax

	double[][] inputs
)

Public Shared Function Estimate ( 
	inputs As Double()()
) As Laplacian

Parameters

inputs: Type: SystemDouble
The data set.

Return Value

Type: Laplacian
A Laplacian kernel initialized with an appropriate sigma value.

Remarks

This method uses a simple heuristic to obtain appropriate values for sigma in a radial basis function kernel. The heuristic is shown by Caputo, Sim, Furesjo and Smola, "Appearance-based object recognition using SVMs: which kernel should I use?", 2002.
