I am using libsvm and although I run same program twice with same parameters

  • 0

I am using libsvm and although I run same program twice with same parameters training function creates different probA and probB values in the model.

Here is my code

public boolean Train()
{
    System.out.println("debug 16- mparameter :  "+ m_parameter.svm_type + " " + m_parameter.kernel_type + " " + m_parameter.gamma + " " + m_parameter.C + " " + m_parameter.cache_size + " " + m_parameter.eps + " " + m_parameter.shrinking + " " +m_parameter.probability + " " + m_parameter.nr_weight );
    System.out.println("training...");
    m_model=svm.svm_train(m_problem,m_parameter);
    System.out.print("debug 16- mparameter :  "+ m_parameter.svm_type + " " + m_parameter.kernel_type + " " + m_parameter.gamma + " " + m_parameter.C + " " + m_parameter.cache_size + " " + m_parameter.eps + " " + m_parameter.shrinking + " " +m_parameter.probability + " " + m_parameter.nr_weight );
    System.out.println(" Prob AB : " + m_model.probA[0]+  " " +m_model.probB[0]+ " "  );

    for(int i=0;i<m_problem.l;i++)
    {

        for(int j=0;j<featureSetSize;j++)
        {
            System.out.print(m_problem.x[i][j].index + " "+ m_problem.x[i][j].value);
        }   
        System.out.print(m_problem.y[i]+ "\n");
    }
    return true;
}

I check the printouts everything is same but resulting probA and probB values are different every time I run program.

Here are printouts
