SVMKernel (biojava-legacy 1.9.5 API)

All Known Implementing Classes:

CachingKernel, DiagonalAddKernel, DiagonalCachingKernel, LinearKernel, ListSumKernel, NestedKernel, NormalizingKernel, PolynomialKernel, RadialBaseKernel, SigmoidKernel, SparseVector.NormalizingKernel, SuffixTreeKernel
```
public interface SVMKernel
```
Kernel for support vector machines and related methods.
It is hoped that all implementations of SVMKernel will be serializable, as this will allow models to be stored and retrieved without inventing complex data formats.

  - evaluate
```
double evaluate(Object a,
                Object b)
```
    Return the dot product of two vectors in an arbitrary feature space. In this implementation, the `vectors' can actually be arbitrary objects.
