For the weighted SVM, each sample consists of a data vector x i, a label y i as in standard SVM; besides, a sample also contains a confidence value v i. Define the effective weighted functional margin of weighted sample (x i, y i, v i ) with respect to a hyperplane (w, b) and a margin normalization function f to be f(v i )y i (〈w ⋅ x i 〉 + b), where f is a monotonically decreasing function.
Barbour contends that lobbying is only "effective at the margins," but this is vintage self-deprecation.
