Welcome!

This package is in the alpha stage of testings.

sAwMIL provides Multiple-Instance Learning (MIL) models built on support vector machines. It is inspired by the outdated misvm package. Our package supports two QP backends: Gurobi and OSQP.

Single-Instance SVMs

  1. SVM (Single-Instance SVM)

Multiple-Instance SVMs

  1. NSK (Normalized Set Kernel) 1 See the exapliner on NSK class for details.
  2. sMIL (Sparse MIL)
