balanced.overlap function

simple examples for svmpath

Datasets for illustrating the svmpath function, that can be plotted while its running data

data(svmpath)

Format

In each case a list with a component x (t column matrix) and a component y (vector of +1/-1 values) "Balanced" refers to whether the number of +1s is the same as the -1s. "Overlap" indicates whether the classes are linearly separable. mixture.data is a balanced dataset with 100 observations in each class. The others are smaller with between 10-12 obs total.
