Abstract: Abstract We consider the problem of classifying completely or partially unlabeled data by using inequalities that contain absolute values of the data. This allows each data point to belong to either one of two classes by entering the inequality with a plus or minus value. By using such absolute value inequalities in linear and nonlinear support vector machines, unlabeled or partially labeled data can be successfully partitioned into two classes that capture most of the correct labels dropped from the unlabeled data.
