Description

<p>In 2014, the above paper entitled ‘Quasi-Linear Support Vector Machine for Nonlinear Classification’ was published by Zhou, et al. [1]. They proposed a quasi-linear kernel function for support vector machine (SVM). However, in this letter, we point out that this proposed kernel function is a part of multiple kernel functions generated by well-known multiple kernel learning which is proposed by Bach, et al. [2] in 2004. Since then, there have been a lot of related papers on multiple kernel learning with several applications [3]. This letter verifies that the main kernel function proposed by Zhou, et al. [1] can be derived using multiple kernel learning algorithms [3]. In the kernel construction, Zhou, et al. [1] used Gaussian kernels, but the multiple kernel learning had already discussed the locality of additive Gaussian kernels or other kernels in the framework [4], [5]. Especially additive Gaussian or other kernels were discussed in tutorial at major international conference ECCV2012 [6]. The authors did not discuss these matters.</p>
