C and gamma range selection

Course Name: Trading with Machine Learning: Classification and SVM, Section No: 5, Unit No: 10, Unit type: Exercise



Hello,



Are the ranges for the parameters c and gamma with rbf kernel must obey on any rules? eg. min value, steps,… 



Thank you

Hi Eric,



There are no set rules for them, but it would help if you could intuitively decide on a probable range and then run GridSearch. You may refer to the official documentation here for guidelines or this post here on StackExchange.



Hope this helps!
