Abstract

This paper proposes a new algorithm for the implementation of Support Vector Machines using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), called Intelligently Initialized Particle Swarm Classifier (I2PSC). Initialization of the particles is done close to the optimal solution by using basic concepts of Geometry and Statistics, so that the rate of convergence of the swarm towards the optimal solution is better as compared to a randomly initialized swarm. The fitness function is designed in such a way that the trade-off between the distance between the bounding planes and the number of misclassifications is greatly reduced compared to traditional SVMs.
