In this paper,the basic theory of statistical learning theory(SLT) and support vector machine(SVM)are introduced systemically and the application of SLT and SVM in the evaluation system are studied.For example, the design method of evaluation system for research projects supported by science foundation is analyzed.In order to improve the generalization performance,it reconstructs the evaluation system based on SVM.At the end of the paper,the comparison of the result of simulation between the evaluationsyste...
