Support vector machines for novel class detection in Bioinformatics

Author(s): Eduardo J. Spinosa and Andr�?© C.P.L.F. de Carvalho

Novelty detection techniques might be a promising way of dealing with high-dimensional classification problems in Bioinformatics. We present preliminary results of the use of a one-class support vector machine approach to detect novel classes in two Bioinformatics databases. The results are compatible with theory and inspire further investigation.
