SVMlight is an implementation of Vapnik's Support Vector Machine
[Vapnik, 1995] for the problem of pattern recognition, for the problem
of regression, and for the problem of learning a ranking function. The
optimization algorithms used in SVMlight are described in [Joachims,
2002a ]. [Joachims, 1999a]. The algorithm has scalable memory
requirements and can handle problems with many thousands of support
vectors efficiently.
The software also provides methods for assessing the generalization
performance efficiently. It includes two efficient estimation methods
for both error rate and precision/recall. XiAlpha-estimates [Joachims,
2002a, Joachims, 2000b] can be computed at essentially no
computational expense, but they are conservatively biased. Almost
unbiased estimates provides leave-one-out testing. SVMlight exploits
that the results of most leave-one-outs (often more than 99%) are
predetermined and need not be computed [Joachims, 2002a].
science/svmlight: Mark DEPRECATED
- Last upstream release was in 2008 and there are more modern tools for
machine learning
- Set EXPIRATION_DATE 2024-04-14
If someone needs this port feel free to undeprecate and takeover
maintainership.
science/svmlight: Fix build with llvm16
- Update MASTER_SITES to https
- Remove obsolete patch
- Remove DOCS option
- Pet portclippy
- Adopt port

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
Remove indefinite articles and trailing periods from COMMENT, plus
minor COMMENT typos and surrounding whitespace fixes. A few Makefiles
where not included as they contain Latin-1 characters that break
the Phabricator workflow. Categories P-S.

Multiple ports: reset maintainers
Maintainers for these ports have been notified on 5 separate occasions
over the course of several months about pending actions required.
We really appreciate the time and effort you put in to maintain
these ports.
If you are still interested in helping to maintain these ports just
reply to me or file a PR and I will happily assign the port to you
again.
