======= Penalty ======= The below penalty cases, are predicated on the following: .. code:: python # classifying packages import numpy as np from sklearn.svm import SVC # visualizer packages from matplotlib.colors import ListedColormap import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import warnings def versiontuple(v): return tuple(map(int, (v.split('.')))) def plot_decision_regions(X, y, classifier, test_idx=None, resolution=0.02): # setup marker generator and color map markers = ('s', 'x', 'o', '^', 'v') colors = ('red', 'blue', 'lightgreen', 'gray', 'cyan') cmap = ListedColormap(colors[:len(np.unique(y))]) # plot the decision surface x1_min, x1_max = X[:, 0].min() - 1, X[:, 0].max() + 1 x2_min, x2_max = X[:, 1].min() - 1, X[:, 1].max() + 1 xx1, xx2 = np.meshgrid( np.arange( x1_min, x1_max, resolution ), np.arange(x2_min, x2_max, resolution) ) Z = classifier.predict(np.array([xx1.ravel(), xx2.ravel()]).T) Z = Z.reshape(xx1.shape) plt.contourf(xx1, xx2, Z, alpha=0.4, cmap=cmap) plt.xlim(xx1.min(), xx1.max()) plt.ylim(xx2.min(), xx2.max()) for idx, cl in enumerate(np.unique(y)): plt.scatter( x=X[y == cl, 0], y=X[y == cl, 1], alpha=0.8, c=cmap(idx), marker=markers[idx], label=cl ) # highlight test samples if test_idx: # plot all samples if not versiontuple(np.__version__) >= versiontuple('1.9.0'): X_test, y_test = X[list(test_idx), :], y[list(test_idx)] warnings.warn('Please update to NumPy 1.9.0 or newer') else: X_test, y_test = X[test_idx, :], y[test_idx] plt.scatter( X_test[:, 0], X_test[:, 1], c='', alpha=1.0, linewidths=1, marker='o', s=55, label='test set' ) # generate sample data np.random.seed(0) X_xor = np.random.randn(200, 2) y_xor = np.logical_xor( X_xor[:, 0] > 0, X_xor[:, 1] > 0 ) y_xor = np.where(y_xor, 1, -1) **Note:** concepts on this page, have been integrated into the `mlxtend `_ library.
