# Gabriel Graph Based Large-Margin Classifiers. Contains the implementation of a binary large margin classifier based on Gabriel Graph. package ## Details Functions were implemented in C++. The first function, "GabrielGraph", generates a graph based on Gabriel Graph's construction rule. Edges are linked according to the Euclidean distance among data samples. The second function, called "model", is used to calculate classifier parameters. It returns a named list with four parameters, the midpoints between opposite-class edges, a vector w containing all weights, a vector representing classifier's bias terms and the corresponding labels of input data. The third function, named "predict", takes the parameters returned by function "model" in order to classify input data. ## Author(s) Thiago Malta Coutinho , Felipe Velloso Campos , Gustavo Rodrigues Lacerda Silva , Luiz Carlos Bambirra , Antonio de Padua Braga ## References Gabriel, K.
