Abstract One-against-one algorithm shows good performance in the multi-class classification algorithm based on SVMs. However, the existing middle unclassifiable region in the algorithm has a bad influence on its performance. To overcome this drawback, a method called alternating iterative one-against-one algorithm is proposed. And the validity analysis and computational complexity of the proposed algorithm are presented. Finally, one-against-one, fuzzy support vector machine (FSVM), decision directed acyclic graph (DDAG) and the proposed algorithm are compared on UCI datasets. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm resolves the unclassifiable region problem effectively and its performance is better than that of the others.
