Abstract: Multiple support vector machines are used to extract useful information from vast quantities of biological data. The method includes pre-processing of training data and test data to add dimensionality or to identify missing or erroneous data points. The training data is used to train the learning machine after which the success of the training is tested using the test data. The test output is pre-processed to determine whether the knowledge discovered from the pre-processed test data set is desirable and to identify which of the multiple support vector machines provides the optimal solution. After the training has been confirmed, live biological data can be pre-processed then input into the identified support vector machine that provides the optimal solution for extraction of useful information.

Abstract: System for enhancing knowledge discovery from data using a learning machine in general and a support vector machine in particular in a distributed network environment. A customer transmits training data, test data and live data to a vendor's server from a remote source, via a distributed network. The training biological data, test biological data and live biological data is stored in a storage device. Training biological data is then pre-processed in order to add meaning thereto. Pre-processing data involves transforming the biological data points and/or expanding the biological data points. Live biological data is pre-processed and input into the trained and tested learning machine. The live output from the learning machine is then post-processed into a computationally derived alphanumerical classifier for interpretation by a human or computer automated process.

Abstract: A system and method for enhancing knowledge discovery from data using a learning machine in general and a support vector machine in particular in a distributed network environment. A customer may transmit training data, test data and live data to a vendor's server from a remote source, via a distributed network. The customer may also transmit to the server identification information such as a user name, a password and a financial account identifier. The training data, test data and live data may be stored in a storage device. Training data may then be pre-processed in order to add meaning thereto. Pre-processing data may involve transforming the data points and/or expanding the data points. By adding meaning to the data, the learning machine is provided with a greater amount of information for processing. With regard to support vector machines in particular, the greater the amount of information that is processed, the better generalizations about the data that may be derived.

Abstract: A system and method for enhancing knowledge discovery from data using multiple learning machines in general and multiple support vector machines in particular. Training data for a learning machine is pre-processed in order to add meaning thereto. Pre-processing data may involve transforming the data points and/or expanding the data points. By adding meaning to the data, the learning machine is provided with a greater amount of information for processing. With regard to support vector machines in particular, the greater the amount of information that is processed, the better generalizations about the data that may be derived. Multiple support vector machines, each comprising distinct kernels, are trained with the pre-processed training data and are tested with test data that is pre-processed in the same manner. The test outputs from multiple support vector machines are compared in order to determine which of the test outputs if any represents a optimal solution.
