One-Class SVM versus One-Class SVM using Stochastic Gradient Descent#

This example shows how to approximate the solution of sklearn.svm.OneClassSVM in the case of an RBF kernel with sklearn.linear_model.SGDOneClassSVM, a Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) version of the One-Class SVM. A kernel approximation is first used in order to apply sklearn.linear_model.SGDOneClassSVM which implements a linear One-Class SVM using SGD.

Note that sklearn.linear_model.SGDOneClassSVM scales linearly with the number of samples whereas the complexity of a kernelized sklearn.svm.OneClassSVM is at best quadratic with respect to the number of samples. It is not the purpose of this example to illustrate the benefits of such an approximation in terms of computation time but rather to show that we obtain similar results on a toy dataset.
