David can give the definitive answers, but I'll give my take on this... > From: Frank Duan > > Dear R people, > > I am trying to plot the results from running svm in library(e1071). I > use plot.svm.

SVs are part of the training data, and as such, have class labels, right? > 2.

Supposedly possible with the ... argument, but it's not clear how to do that, unless you read the code (which you can, of course). Looks like some graphical parameters are hardwired in there, so you might need to modify it to your own liking. > 3. Is it possible for me to draw a "hyperplane" on the plot? Not sure what you mean. You are looking at a 2D subspace. How do you want to draw hyperplane on such subspace? > 4. What is the algorithm to plot the contour region? Again, you can look at the code. It does the logical thing: predict() on a regular grid and plot that.
