Summary:
Decomposition methods are efficient iterative techniques for solving large quadratic programming (QP) problems arising in support vector machines. In each step, the decomposition method chooses a set of a small number of variables called the working set and then solves the QP problem with respect to those selected variables. In this paper, we propose a new working set selection method based on the conjugate gradient method and evaluate its effectiveness by using benchmark data sets on both pattern classification and regression problems.
