Hi,all

In order to get the optimized value of SVM.c and SVM.gamma, I used the 'parameter optimized (grid)' to get the expected values of SVM operator. However, I often got the NaN data as below:

Performance:
性能向量 [
-----root_mean_squared_error: unknown
-----squared_error: unknown
]
SVM.gamma = NaN
SVM.C = NaN


Who know what's the root cause?

Below are the process file:

    Hi there,

    Without the data it is difficult to be sure, but I think you should at least put the "discretize" operator somewhere else. As it is, numerical attributes are converted to nominal in the training examples, but not in the test examples of the validation, which is pretty radical. Try putting it before the Grid optimisation?


    Good luck!

    PS. I'm not sure why you've used the "extract_performance" operator either.

    haddock,

    First, thanks your quick answer! 
    I solved the problem by set initialized values for C an gamma.  I wonder why I can not use the default value?

    Now I have below two problems:
    1.  My target is to use grid search to get the optimized parameters and then use them in final SVM operator.  Currently, I can set the C an gamma to a parameter file, and can use readParameter to retrieve them, but set them to the final SVM?    I plan to use macro , but how to read parameters from a file and set them into macros?

    If can not do it automatically, I have to do it with two separate steps manually :-(

    2. As you mentioned, I can use Extract Performance. Would you please let me know how to use it?  Can you give me a sample? Thanks in advance.

    Sorry. I made a mistake. It can work only if svm_type is set to nu-SVC rather than C-SVC.  Once I set it to C-SVC, Below error message reported in log file:

    Apr 6, 2010 8:10:18 PM INFO: Kernel Model: The learned model does not support parameter

    I simplified my process (some operators are disabled: Optimize Parameters (Evolutionary): disabled,  Optimize Parameters (Grid)  can work but not expected, so disabled, ).

    Hi again,

    I once went up to Dortmund to sample the beer and a course given by the blessed Klink. A much repeated message was that simple is good! If I edit your data to take out "(label)", and save the data as .CSV, like this ...
    ID   CLU (label)   LLD   LLS   ILD   ILM   DEN   CNL   AC   GR   POR   PERM   RQI   SO   SH   CEC   Swi   Qv
    1    oilwithlowRES   6.20    5.85    3.76    4.50    2.58    16.60    269.90    89.86    28.09    1.62    2.40    29.67    31.63    6.92    33.62    0.67
    I can then split the data 90% training, 10%  test, and use the 90% to find values for C and Gamma, which can be used  to learn and predict on the test set, like this...

    Rumour has it that SVMs prefer normalised data for breakfast, so I've chucked that in, and we appear to get reasonable results despite the skewed distribution of the label values. I have no idea if this is what you were after, but let the wisdom of the Klink guide you - keep it simple!

    Hi,

    There is still somthing I don't understand Haddock. I just modified your code to use the "Sonar" data sample provided in the Samples repository, and I use the whole dataset to optimise parameters (C and Gamma) and to run classification through SVM2. I would expect to get the same results as in SVM2 we are using the parameters from the previous optimisation, instead we get 100% accuracy.
    I understand that you splited the data set precisely to avoid this phenomenon but could you  please briefly explain why this happen.
    Thank you very much for your help.

    Hi Pop,

    If you run my code you'll you'll see the order of execution ( by pressing the double ended blue arrow with question mark on the process tab ), and be able to confirm that the parameter optimisation is done before applying the test. I'm not sure the same applies to your code...

    But still, results after paramaters optimisation and SVM2 are differents. I don't understand why...

    Hi Pop,

    It is because of the validation, which just tests on subsets, rather than on the whole example set. If you remove the validation, so that the optimiser also plays with the full example set, the two performances are as expected, namely equal. Here's the point in more detail...

    Hi Haddock,

    First I would like to thank you very much for your help and your explanations.
    But I am afraid I don't get it quite yet... My understanding is that by removing the X-Validation we have done an overfitting of the learner to the dataset, so with optimised parameters SVM1 can classified with 100% accuracy the dataset. This is not really surprising that SVM1 can achieve this result with no cross validation but it has probably lost its ability to generalise. Then SVM2 which is defined with the SVM1 parameters and applied to same dataset will achieve the same result. This make sense to me.
    What does not make sense to me is the result with X-validation. In that case my understanding of the process is that the learner will be trained and tested on different subsets. The learning process will stop when an extremum is reached on the error of classification of the data on the chosen test subset. By doing so we might not be able to classified with 100% accuracy but we keep the generalization ability.  So when SVM1 is trained with X-validation and if the result is let say 80%, it seems impossible to me that SVM2 (which is finally a copy of SVM1) can classified the whole dataset with 100% accuracy. The reason for that is that the subset on which SVM1 made the test with result 80% is mandatorily included in the whole dataset, and if SVM1 cannot achieve better than 80% on this specific subset, why would SVM2 be better on this specific subset. So there must be some misclassifications and then 100% accuracy is not possible.
    Is this wrong?
    Also are we sure that the accuracy we can read for SVM1 is coming from the optimised parameters?
    Again , thank you very much for your help!

    Hi,

    Is this wrong?
    I am just jumping in but frankly: yes, it is wrong. If I get you right, I think your misunderstanding begins lies in the sentence:

    The learning process will stop when an extremum is reached on the error of classification of the data on the chosen test subset.
    The learner does not care about any performance on the test subset. In fact, it does not see it at all - that is exactly the point of cross validation. If the learner would optimize its learning phase according to the test set, it would no longer be independent and the concept of cross validation would be reduced to absurdity.

    Cheers,
    Ingo

    Hi Pop,

    And greetings to Ingo, Magus of the pointy head and Dataminer Poursuivant to the Late Ludwig of Bavaria...

    At first glance this seems odd; if the optimiser can only get N% how can anything do better? But if you alter the viewpoint the oddness disappears. The more of the domain you train on the better the performance should be.
    In that case my understanding of the process is that the learner will be trained and tested on different subsets.
    Indeed, the SVM will be repeatedly built and tested on different splits of the data.
    The learning process will stop when an extremum is reached on the error of classification of the data on the chosen test subset. By doing so we might not be able to classified with 100% accuracy but we keep the generalization ability.
    I think the grid just does all the combos and retrieves the best.
    So when SVM1 is trained with X-validation and if the result is let say 80%, it seems impossible to me that SVM2 (which is finally a copy of SVM1) can classified the whole dataset with 100% accuracy.
    Identical learners can produce different models from different data; SVM2 has more data to work from, and there are no hidden exceptions.
    The reason for that is that the subset on which SVM1 made the test with result 80% is mandatorily included in the whole dataset, and if SVM1 cannot achieve better than 80% on this specific subset, why would SVM2 be better on this specific subset.
    Because it has more data?
    So there must be some misclassifications and then 100% accuracy is not possible.Is this wrong?
    I fear so.
    Also are we sure that the accuracy we can read for SVM1 is coming from the optimised parameters?
    I've inserted a log ( v. useful, to be recommended ) which casts light on the process.

    Good weekend to all!

    Hi Ingo,

    Thank you very much for jumping in and correcting me.
    I think my mistake come from a confusion between neural net training and SVM. Don't we use the error on the test set to stop training the neural net?
    In the case of SVM the test set is only used to make a performance measurement, no feed back to the learning process, is this correct?
    In the case of NN the X-validation has an impact on the model performance, for SVM it has no impact on the model performance but on the quality of the model performance measurement. Is that right?
    But still the measurement preformed on the test set indicate some misclassifications. How can we have 100% accuracy on the whole dataset with SVM2?
    Is it something normal? or is it the process design that is wrong? Or more probably my interpretation of it?
    Again, Ingo, thank you very much for your help and for taking time to educate people.

    Hi Haddock,
    Thank you for your help, the log is great.
    I might be wrong but I don't think it is due to the fact that SVM2 has more data because if you look at the model as in the code below you see that SVM1 model and SVM2 model are rigorously the same. It is not as if SVM2 was re-trained with new data unknown to SVM1.

    Thank you very much again, Ingo and Haddock for your help.

    Not true. If we run your code we can mouse over the input port of SVM and see that it has 187 input examples, meaning that on each run 21are left out for testing against, whereas if we do the same on SVM2 there are 208 examples, meaning 0 are left out. So SVM2 gets to see the whole dataset at once, while the other never does, it just gets repeated glimpses of 90%.

    three times right. Just let me add that the cross validation of RapidMiner never feeds the performance information back to any learner, independent of the type (NN vs. SVM vs. ...). The backprogation of the error is done internally in the neural net, the "outer" cross validation is only used for performance estimation in any case.

    I just have realized (should have read the thread title better  :P ) that you have the cross validation inside of a grid optimization. As far as I understood I would agree with Captain Haddocks explanation. I am currently on my way back home and do not have access to RapidMiner but maybe will try the process tomorrow.

    Cheers,
    Ingo

    Hi Ingo,

    Thank you very much for your further explanations. It makes things clear.

    Hi Haddock,

    I now realise my mistake, I said something wrong: "SVM2 is copy of SVM1", SVM2 only use the same parameters C & Gamma but is re-trained on the full dataset. So I now understand your point. What is confusing me still is that the two models are exactly the same when we visualize them... I don't understand this.

    If we now remove SVM2 and apply directly the model out of the Optimiser to the whole dataset we should now match the first result... Shouldn't we??
    There must be something very obvious that I miss, I am sorry to bother you with this.
    Again Haddock and Ingo, thank you very much for your very kind help.

    Hi Pop,

    When in doubt stick in a log! If I stick one in your code I can quickly see that the model you are applying is simply the one made in the last pass of the optimisation, which in this case had the largest values for C and Gamma. Big Gammas matter..
    If you are checking your results on the training data, it's natural that the results are better when you give a big value of gamma because you allow the training procedure to adapt almost perfectly to the data you give it. This will probably mean that, for unseen data samples you're model/classifier won't have good results since it's too adapted to the training samples.
    Which is from here...
    http://agbs.kyb.tuebingen.mpg.de/km/bb/showthread.php?tid=1240

    Here's the code which shows that the optimiser produced parameters of SVM.C = 1000 SVM.gamma = 0.01 whereas the model you were applying had 100,000 for both....

    Hi Haddock,

    First, thank you very much for not giving up!!!
    You are absolutely right about C and Gamma, it was my mistake, but even with fixed C and Gamma it doesn't solve my problem.

    I think my problem lies in a wrong interpretation of the X-Validation operator to illustrate this let me just give you 2 small process.
    In the first we still use the sonar data, I split it and use 70% to train the SVM, I test the model on the 30% remaining. You can see that I get an accuracy close to 84%. Then I apply this model on the whole data set and I get something around 95%. This make perfect sense to me.

    Now I replace the split by a X-Validation. The SVM use the same parameters as in the previous example. The performance is around  86%. Then I apply again the model on the whole dataset and I get 100% accuracy. Not a single misclassification. This make no sense to me I would have expected something similar or a bit better than in our first experiment but not 100%...

    Hi,

    in your second process, you use the model learned from the complete set and apply it also on the complete set. Learning with an RBF kernel with an appropriate gamma leads to perfect overfitting in such a setting. Just replace the SVM with a KNN with k = 1 and you will see exact the same phenomenon. For exactly that reason you never, never, never calculate and use the training error for anything (but wondering...)  ;)

    Here is the KNN process:

    Change k to another value (e.g. 10) and you will see how the performances change (and it still remains to be "overfitted"). The same would be true if you change C and gamma in SVM (although it seems to be harder to understand there...).

    Cheers,

    Hi Pop!

    We'll get there in the end, wherever there might be! I think you get the idea of validation, shuffle and test, shuffle and test until you reach some arbitrary satisfaction point. What you are hoping to get is some idea of how the trained model will perform on new examples.

    Because the maths is so slick at reshaping the data, and the permutation possibilties are almost limitless, Support Vector Machines can mimic nearly any binary pattern almost perfectly. So the problem turns around, into how to prevent overtraining, to which of course the answer is .... shuffle and test, shuffle and test etc.. etc..

    I've bashed out this code which goes through all the SVM combos on all the data, and records performance. What pops out is that getting 100% is not unusual, and that performance is surprisingly predictable.

    Dear Ingo, dear Haddock,
    Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and for taking time to help and educate people. I know that I am repeating myself but I truly think that we'll never say it enough.
    I think that, thanks to your explanations,  I have finally realized what were my misunderstandings on the X-Validation process. I just want to give a brief explanation for people that might get trapped in wrong interpretations as I was. The X-Validation Operator with k validations will divide the dataset in k subset. It will then use k-1 subset for training the model and the one not used for testing it. It will do the process k time changing each time the testing set. The model is then never trained and tested on the same data. On each of the k time The Operator will train a model and make a performance measurement. The performance that is the output of the operator is the average of the k performance measurement. The model that is the output of the operator is none of the k model trained on a subset but is another model trained on the whole dataset (that is the main point I did not get). So obviously applying this model to the whole dataset afterward makes no sense.
    A question remains. As Ingo showed the parameters chosen for C and Gamma lead to over-fitting. Intuitively I would have expected the X-Validation Operator to give me a 100% accuracy in that case and to me a 100% accuracy would have been the warning of over-fitting. I now realize that this is wrong, but then what is a good indicator for over-fitting? And in our case is over-fitting an issue? Even with this over-fitting, the performance on the X-Validation are good, which means the model kept its ability to generalize. Is this wrong??
    Thank you very much.
