  • Abstract
    A new method for estimating the VC dimension in advance is proposed, which can be taken as a principle for measuring the generalization performance of SVM. Our method adopts the two-order statistic of training samples and maintains consistency with the method for estimating the VC dimension in statistical learning theory. Our method can be applied to the problem of model selection and sample pre-processing. Simulation results show the feasibility and practicability of our method.
