Hi Andy,
The purpose of the transformer is to take an ordinary kernel (in this case
I have taken 'rbf' as a default) and return a 'sequentialised' kernel using
a few extra parameters. Hence, the transformer takes an ordinary
data-target pair X, y as its input, and the fit_transform(X, y) method will
output the Gram matrix for X that is associated with this sequentialised
kernel. In the pipeline, this Gram matrix is passed into an SVC classifier
with the kernel parameter set to 'precomputed'.
Therefore, I do not think your hacky solution would be possible. However, I
am still unsure how to implement your first solution: won't the Gram matrix
from the transformer contain all the necessary kernel values? Could you
elaborate further?
Best,
Sam
