SHOGUN - is a new machine learning toolbox with focus on large scale kernel
methods and especially on Support Vector Machines (SVM) with focus to
bioinformatics. It provides a generic SVM object interfacing to several
different SVM implementations. Each of the SVMs can be combined with a variety
of the many kernels implemented. It can deal with weighted linear combination
of a number of sub-kernels, each of which not necessarily working on the same
domain, where an optimal sub-kernel weighting can be learned using Multiple
Kernel Learning. Apart from SVM 2-class classification and regression
problems, a number of linear methods like Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA),
Linear Programming Machine (LPM), (Kernel) Perceptrons and also algorithms to
train hidden markov models are implemented. The input feature-objects can be
dense, sparse or strings and of type int/short/double/char and can be
converted into different feature types. Chains of preprocessors (e.g.
substracting the mean) can be attached to each feature object allowing for
on-the-fly pre-processing.
.
SHOGUN comes in different flavours, a stand-a-lone version and also with
interfaces to Matlab(tm), R, Octave, Readline and Python. This is the core
library with the machine learning methods and ui helpers all interfaces are
based on.
