Chapter 5 – Support Vector Machines
This notebook contains all the sample code and solutions to the exercises in chapter 5.
First, let's make sure this notebook works well in both python 2 and 3, import a few common modules, ensure MatplotLib plots figures inline and prepare a function to save the figures:
In [1]:
# To support both python 2 and python 3
from __future__ import division, print_function, unicode_literals
# Common imports
import numpy as np
import os
# to make this notebook's output stable across runs
np.random.seed(42)
# To plot pretty figures
%matplotlib inline
import matplotlib
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.rcParams['axes.labelsize'] = 14
plt.rcParams['xtick.labelsize'] = 12
plt.rcParams['ytick.labelsize'] = 12
# Where to save the figures
PROJECT_ROOT_DIR = "."
CHAPTER_ID = "svm"
def save_fig(fig_id, tight_layout=True):
path = os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT_DIR, "images", CHAPTER_ID, fig_id + ".png")
print("Saving figure", fig_id)
if tight_layout:
plt.tight_layout()
plt.savefig(path, format='png', dpi=300)
The next few code cells generate the first figures in chapter 5. The first actual code sample comes after:

Exercise: train a LinearSVC on a linearly separable dataset. Then train an SVC and a SGDClassifier on the same dataset. See if you can get them to produce roughly the same model.

Exercise: train an SVM classifier on the MNIST dataset. Since SVM classifiers are binary classifiers, you will need to use one-versus-all to classify all 10 digits. You may want to tune the hyperparameters using small validation sets to speed up the process. What accuracy can you reach?
First, let's load the dataset and split it into a training set and a test set. We could use train_test_split() but people usually just take the first 60,000 instances for the training set, and the last 10,000 instances for the test set (this makes it possible to compare your model's performance with others):
In [47]:
from sklearn.datasets import fetch_mldata
mnist = fetch_mldata("MNIST original")
X = mnist["data"]
y = mnist["target"]
X_train = X[:60000]
y_train = y[:60000]
X_test = X[60000:]
y_test = y[60000:]
Many training algorithms are sensitive to the order of the training instances, so it's generally good practice to shuffle them first:
In [48]:
np.random.seed(42)
rnd_idx = np.random.permutation(60000)
X_train = X_train[rnd_idx]
y_train = y_train[rnd_idx]
Let's start simple, with a linear SVM classifier. It will automatically use the One-vs-All (also called One-vs-the-Rest, OvR) strategy, so there's nothing special we need to do. Easy!
In [49]:
lin_clf = LinearSVC(random_state=42)
lin_clf.fit(X_train, y_train)
Out[49]:
Let's make predictions on the training set and measure the accuracy (we don't want to measure it on the test set yet, since we have not selected and trained the final model yet):
In [50]:
from sklearn.metrics import accuracy_score
y_pred = lin_clf.predict(X_train)
accuracy_score(y_train, y_pred)
Out[50]:
Wow, 82% accuracy on MNIST is a really bad performance. This linear model is certainly too simple for MNIST, but perhaps we just needed to scale the data first:
In [51]:
scaler = StandardScaler()
X_train_scaled = scaler.fit_transform(X_train.astype(np.float32))
X_test_scaled = scaler.transform(X_test.astype(np.float32))
In [52]:
lin_clf = LinearSVC(random_state=42)
lin_clf.fit(X_train_scaled, y_train)
Out[52]:
In [53]:
y_pred = lin_clf.predict(X_train_scaled)
accuracy_score(y_train, y_pred)
Out[53]:
That's much better (we cut the error rate in two), but still not great at all for MNIST. If we want to use an SVM, we will have to use a kernel. Let's try an SVC with an RBF kernel (the default).
Warning: if you are using Scikit-Learn ≤ 0.19, the SVC class will use the One-vs-One (OvO) strategy by default, so you must explicitly set decision_function_shape="ovr" if you want to use the OvR strategy instead (OvR is the default since 0.19).
In [54]:
svm_clf = SVC(decision_function_shape="ovr")
svm_clf.fit(X_train_scaled[:10000], y_train[:10000])
Out[54]:
In [55]:
y_pred = svm_clf.predict(X_train_scaled)
accuracy_score(y_train, y_pred)
Out[55]:
That's promising, we get better performance even though we trained the model on 6 times less data. Let's tune the hyperparameters by doing a randomized search with cross validation. We will do this on a small dataset just to speed up the process:
In [56]:
from sklearn.model_selection import RandomizedSearchCV
from scipy.stats import reciprocal, uniform
param_distributions = {"gamma": reciprocal(0.001, 0.1), "C": uniform(1, 10)}
rnd_search_cv = RandomizedSearchCV(svm_clf, param_distributions, n_iter=10, verbose=2)
rnd_search_cv.fit(X_train_scaled[:1000], y_train[:1000])
Out[56]:
In [57]:
rnd_search_cv.best_estimator_
Out[57]:
In [58]:
rnd_search_cv.best_score_
Out[58]:
This looks pretty low but remember we only trained the model on 1,000 instances. Let's retrain the best estimator on the whole training set (run this at night, it will take hours):
In [59]:
rnd_search_cv.best_estimator_.fit(X_train_scaled, y_train)
Out[59]:
In [60]:
y_pred = rnd_search_cv.best_estimator_.predict(X_train_scaled)
accuracy_score(y_train, y_pred)
Out[60]:
Ah, this looks good! Let's select this model. Now we can test it on the test set:
In [61]:
y_pred = rnd_search_cv.best_estimator_.predict(X_test_scaled)
accuracy_score(y_test, y_pred)
Out[61]:
Not too bad, but apparently the model is overfitting slightly. It's tempting to tweak the hyperparameters a bit more (e.g. decreasing C and/or gamma), but we would run the risk of overfitting the test set. Other people have found that the hyperparameters C=5 and gamma=0.005 yield even better performance (over 98% accuracy). By running the randomized search for longer and on a larger part of the training set, you may be able to find this as well.
Exercise: train an SVM regressor on the California housing dataset.
Let's load the dataset using Scikit-Learn's fetch_california_housing() function:
In [62]:
from sklearn.datasets import fetch_california_housing
housing = fetch_california_housing()
X = housing["data"]
y = housing["target"]
Split it into a training set and a test set:
In [63]:
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.2, random_state=42)
Don't forget to scale the data:
In [64]:
from sklearn.preprocessing import StandardScaler
scaler = StandardScaler()
X_train_scaled = scaler.fit_transform(X_train)
X_test_scaled = scaler.transform(X_test)
Let's train a simple LinearSVR first:
In [65]:
from sklearn.svm import LinearSVR
lin_svr = LinearSVR(random_state=42)
lin_svr.fit(X_train_scaled, y_train)
Out[65]:
Let's see how it performs on the training set:
In [66]:
from sklearn.metrics import mean_squared_error
y_pred = lin_svr.predict(X_train_scaled)
mse = mean_squared_error(y_train, y_pred)
mse
Out[66]:
Let's look at the RMSE:
In [67]:
np.sqrt(mse)
Out[67]:
In this training set, the targets are tens of thousands of dollars. The RMSE gives a rough idea of the kind of error you should expect (with a higher weight for large errors): so with this model we can expect errors somewhere around $10,000. Not great. Let's see if we can do better with an RBF Kernel. We will use randomized search with cross validation to find the appropriate hyperparameter values for C and gamma:
In [68]:
from sklearn.svm import SVR
from sklearn.model_selection import RandomizedSearchCV
from scipy.stats import reciprocal, uniform
param_distributions = {"gamma": reciprocal(0.001, 0.1), "C": uniform(1, 10)}
rnd_search_cv = RandomizedSearchCV(SVR(), param_distributions, n_iter=10, verbose=2, random_state=42)
rnd_search_cv.fit(X_train_scaled, y_train)
Out[68]:
In [69]:
rnd_search_cv.best_estimator_
Out[69]:
Now let's measure the RMSE on the training set:
In [70]:
y_pred = rnd_search_cv.best_estimator_.predict(X_train_scaled)
mse = mean_squared_error(y_train, y_pred)
np.sqrt(mse)
Out[70]:
Looks much better than the linear model. Let's select this model and evaluate it on the test set:
In [71]:
y_pred = rnd_search_cv.best_estimator_.predict(X_test_scaled)
mse = mean_squared_error(y_test, y_pred)
np.sqrt(mse)
Out[71]:
