C-parameter version of robust bounded one-class support vector classification by Junyou Ye, Zhixia Yang, Yongxing Hu, Zheng Zhang

“…The theoretical properties of the proposed method are successively derived, including the relationship between the solutions to the primal and dual problems, the connections between our C-BOCSVC and $$\nu$$ -OCSVC and the computational complexity. Experimental results over massive datasets demonstrate the feasibility and reliability of our C-BOCSVC, and highlight the superior performance of C-RBOCSVC compared to other state-of-the-art one-class classifiers when data is contaminated. …”
