3 Convex Relaxation Techniques for Hyperbolic SVMs

In this section, we first introduce fundamentals on hyperbolic spaces and the original formulation of the hyperbolic Support Vector Machine (HSVM) due to Cho et al. [4]. Next, we present two relaxations techniques, the semidefinite relaxation and the moment-sum-of-squares relaxation, that can be solved efficiently with convergence guarantees. Our discussions center on the Lorentz manifold as the choice of hyperbolic space, since it has been shown in Mishne et al. [6] that the Lorentz formulation offers greater numerical advantages in optimization.
