In this paper, we investigate the application of support vector machines (SVM) in pattern recognition. SVM is a learning technique developed by Vapnik et al. (1997) that can be seen as a new method for training polynomial, neural network, or radial basis functions classifiers. The decision surfaces are found by solving a linearly constrained quadratic programming problem. We present experimental results of our implementation of SVM, and demonstrate its advantage on well-log data classification problem
