Next, we consider two similar libraries, LIBSVM and LIBLINEAR.
- LIBSVM (https://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/libsvm/) is a library with implementation of Support Vector Machine models, which include support vector classifiers
- LIBLINEAR (https://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/liblinear/) is a library for fast linear classification algorithms such as Liner SVM and Logistic Regression
Both these libraries come from the same research group and have very similar interfaces. We will start with LIBSVM.
LIBSVM is a library that implements a number of different SVM algorithms. It is implemented in C++ and has an officially supported Java version. It is available on Maven Central:
