CFixedDegreeStringKernel Class Reference


Detailed Description

The FixedDegree String kernel takes as input two strings of same size and counts the number of matches of length d.

\[ k({\bf x}, {\bf x'}) = \sum_{i=0}^{l-d} I({\bf x}_{i,i+1,\dots,i+d-1} = {\bf x'}_{i,i+1,\dots,i+d-1}) \]

Note that additional normalisation is applied, i.e.

\[ k'({\bf x}, {\bf x'})=\frac{k({\bf x}, {\bf x'})}{\sqrt{k({\bf x}, {\bf x})k({\bf x'}, {\bf x'})}} \]
