Crate libsvm_rs 

libsvm-rs

A pure Rust reimplementation of LIBSVM, targeting numerical equivalence and model-file compatibility with the original C++ library.

Status

Phases 0–4 complete: types, I/O, kernels, cache, prediction, full SMO solver, probability estimates (Platt scaling), and cross-validation. Training works for all 5 SVM types (C-SVC, ν-SVC, one-class, ε-SVR, ν-SVR). See train::svm_train for training, predict::predict for inference, and predict::predict_probability for probabilistic outputs.

Feature Flags

• rayon — Enable parallel cross-validation (off by default).

Modules

cache

LRU kernel cache matching the original LIBSVM.

cross_validation

Cross-validation for SVM models.

error

io

I/O routines for LIBSVM problem and model files.

kernel

Kernel functions matching the original LIBSVM.

metrics

Lightweight scoring helpers for CLI outputs and test checks.

predict

Prediction functions matching the original LIBSVM.

probability

Probability estimation functions for SVM models.

qmatrix

Q matrix implementations for the SMO solver.

solver

SMO solver for the SVM dual problem.

train

SVM training pipeline.

types

util

Shared internal utilities for libsvm-rs.

Functions

set_quiet

Enable or disable quiet mode. When quiet, solver diagnostic messages are suppressed (equivalent to LIBSVM’s -q flag).
