rb-libsvm -- Ruby language bindings for LIBSVM

Spec Status: Build Status

This package provides a Ruby bindings to the LIBSVM 1 library. SVM is a machine learning and classification algorithm, and LIBSVM is a popular free implementation of it, written by Chih-Chung Chang and Chih-Jen Lin, of National Taiwan University, Taipei. See "Programming Collective Intelligence," 2 among others, for a usage example.

Note: There exist two other Ruby bindings for LIBSVM. One is named Ruby SVM, written by Rudi Cilibrasi. It is hard to find now. The other, more actively developed one is libsvm-ruby-swig by Tom Zeng 3, which is built using SWIG.

Dependencies

None. Libsvm is bundled with the project. Just install and go!

Currently includes libsvm version 3.12.

Installation

gem install rb-libsvm

Usage

require 'libsvm'

# This library is namespaced.
problem = Libsvm::Problem.new
parameter = Libsvm::SvmParameter.new

parameter.cache_size = 1 # in megabytes

parameter.eps = 0.001
parameter.c = 10

examples = [ [1,0,1], [-1,0,-1] ].map {|ary| Libsvm::Node.features(ary) }
labels = [1, -1]

problem.set_examples(labels, examples)

model = Libsvm::Model.train(problem, parameter)

pred = model.predict(Libsvm::Node.features(1, 1, 1))
puts "Example [1, 1, 1] - Predicted #{pred}"
