SVM is the most popular algorithm among kernel methods. Since SVM is formulated by quadratic programming, we can always obtain the optimal solution. Second-order cone programming (SOCP) is an extension of quadratic programming. We can solve SOCP efficiently, and also obtain the optimal solution. We have developed a new algorithm for multi-task learning using SOCP. We confirmed the usefulness of out algorithm in a variety of applications.
