The main attention is paid to the variability of the results by changing hyperparameters: bandwidth of the radial basis function kernel and C parameter. Training error, testing error and number of support vectors are plotted against hyperparameters. Number of support vectors is minimal at the optimal solution. Two real case studies are considered: Cd contamination in the Leman Lake, Briansk region radionuclides soil contamination. Structural analysis (variography) is used for the description of the spatial patterns obtained and to monitor the performance of SVM.}, pdf = {https://publications.idiap.ch/attachments/reports/1999/IDIAP-RR-99-15.pdf}, postscript = {ftp://ftp.idiap.ch/pub/reports/1999/IDIAP-RR-99-15.ps}, ipdmembership={learning}, }
