Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new regularization scheme for the well-known Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier that operates on the training sample level. The proposed approach is motivated by the fact that Maximum Margin-based classification defines decision functions as a linear combination of the selected training data and, thus, the variations on training sample selection directly affect generalization performance. We show that the exploitation of the proposed regularization scheme is well motivated and intuitive. Experimental results show that the proposed regularization scheme outperforms standard SVM in human action recognition tasks as well as classical recognition problems.
