Few questions about SVM configuration in Mahout

Hi all,

Just few questions about the configuration of an SVM in Mahout :

- Is it possible to do a multi-class classification ?
- Which kernels are already available (linear, polynomial, rbf) ?
- Where can we find details about the way the algorithm has been
distributed ?

Many thanks,

Quentin

Hi Quentin,

Mahout does not have SVMs.

Best,
Sebastian

Mahout presently has no SVM impl.  U could use Logistic Regression (with SGD) for classification.
