"Text Classification with SVM"
Contributor II
Hi,
My goal is to optimize sentiment prediction by using SVM insted knn.
Therefor i had to bring up a substep which proves for subjectivity (with a two class Model: subjectivity, nonsub). Each sentence with subjectivity would be relevant for my SVM based approach. Certainly, i'm using SVM to predict the subjectivity. But when i apply the Model on unclassified sentences i receive as a result just on prediction class.
This is my process to create the model. The process to apply the model is down under. Am i missing something?

In my own work I've found that SVMs are very sensitive to their parameters, kernel type, C and epsilon. Things aren't made any easier by by the fact that those parameters are rather tricky to define http://www.svms.org/parameters/; so your best bet is to do the combinations and check the performances.
I only mention this because I see that your model is made on one pass with C set to zero; without checking against the data it is not possible to be definitive, but I'm not that surprised that you just get one class in the prediction column. There is a handy paper on this subject at http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/papers/guide/guide.pdf which will point you in the right direction.
Hope so, have fun!
