Libsvm GUI

A simple graphical frontend for Libsvm mainly intended for didactic purposes. You can create data points by point and click and visualize the decision region induced by different kernels and parameter settings.

To create positive examples click the left mouse button; to create negative examples click the right button.

If all examples are from the same class, it uses a one-class SVM.
