%SVMTRAIN Trains an SVM classifier using a simplified version of the SMO 
%algorithm. 
%   [model] = SVMTRAIN(X, Y, C, kernelFunction, tol, max_passes) trains an
%   SVM classifier and returns trained model. X is the matrix of training 
%   examples.  Each row is a training example, and the jth column holds the 
%   jth feature.  Y is a column matrix containing 1 for positive examples 
%   and 0 for negative examples.  C is the standard SVM regularization 
%   parameter.  tol is a tolerance value used for determining equality of 
%   floating point numbers. max_passes controls the number of iterations
%   over the dataset (without changes to alpha) before the algorithm quits.
%
% Note: This is a simplified version of the SMO algorithm for training
%       SVMs. In practice, if you want to train an SVM classifier, we
%       recommend using an optimized package such as:  
%
%           LIBSVM   (http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/libsvm/)
%           SVMLight (http://svmlight.joachims.org/)
