SVM provided a bad result in my data. How to fix?

2019-08-02 17:01发布

问题:

I have a dataset that contains 510 samples for training and 127 samples for testing, each sample has 7680 features. I want to design a model to predict the height (cm)-label-from the training data. Currently, I used SVM but it provided very bad result. Could you look at my code and give me some comments. You can try it in your machine using the dataset and a runnable code

import numpy as np
from sklearn.svm import SVR

# Training Data
train_X = np.loadtxt('trainX.txt') # 510 x 7680
train_Y = np.loadtxt('trainY.txt') # 510 x 1
test_X = np.loadtxt('testX.txt')   # 127 x 7680
test_Y = np.loadtxt('testY.txt')   # 127 x 1

my_svr = SVR(C=1000, epsilon=0.2)
my_svr.fit(train_X,train_Y)

p_regression = my_svr.predict(test_X)
print (p_regression)
print (test_Y)

Some results:

回答1:

Here is a similar approach. We will split data sets into train and test ones. train data set will be used for tuning hyperparameters and for fitting different models. Then we will choose the best (in terms of MSE) model and predict values from the test data set.

All trained (fitted) models will be saved as Pickle files, so they can be loaded later on using joblib.load() method.

Output:

I agree with @George - "there is something "wrong" with the test set". I got similar results of MSE - approx. 21.

I also tried to put train and test datasets together and feed it to GridSearchCV.

PS sorry for using name classifier instead of regressor - I just reused my old code where I was searching for the best classifier....

according to your dataset it seems that your features are too high. It is better to use features grouping algorithms before you start processing with SVM.
