Estimation of the information of a subset of regions using linear kernels along with ν-MKL and lp-norm MKL for the simulated dataset. The metrics used to determine the amount of information of the regions by means of ν-MKL (mean of the normalized γ values) and lp-norm MKL (kernel weights’ mean) as well as their selection frequencies for each algorithm are reported. Both the normalized γ values and the kernel weights have been scaled so that their maximum values equal 1 to make the comparison easier. These coefficients are contrasted against the accuracy rates achieved by these regions using a linear SVM.
