Support Vector Machine (SVM) is a robust machine learning algorithm with broad applications in classification, regression, and outlier detection. SVM requires tuning the regularization parameter (RP) which controls the model capacity and the generalization performance. Conventionally, the optimum RP is found by comparison of a range of values through the Cross-Validation (CV) procedure. In addition, for non-linearly separable data, the SVM uses kernels where a set of kernels, each with a set of parameters, denoted as a grid of kernels, are considered. The optimal choice of RP and the grid of kernels is through the grid-search of CV. By stochastically analyzing the behavior of the regularization parameter, this work shows that the SVM performance can be modeled as a function of separability and scatteredness (S&S) of the data. Separability is a measure of the distance between classes, and scatteredness is the ratio of the spread of data points. In particular, for the hinge loss cost function, an S&S ratio-based table provides the optimum RP. The S&S ratio is a powerful value that can automatically detect linear or non-linear separability before using the SVM algorithm. The provided S&S ratio-based table can also provide the optimum kernel and its parameters before using the SVM algorithm. Consequently, the computational complexity of the CV grid-search is reduced to only one time use of the SVM. The simulation results on the real dataset confirm the superiority and efficiency of the proposed approach in the sense of computational complexity over the grid-search CV method.
