Finally, I did not find the detail of the “R_svmpredict” function that may be a 
C program but applying the function named “svmpred” in the svminternals.pdf 
document I solved my problem.

Thank you and best regards, Benoit.

You could download the package code from CRAN and look yourself at what the 
predict function is doing.

Hello everybody,

That is the first time that I am working on a SVM modeling and I would like to 
calculate by myself the result values from the SVM for each line of my database 
(named x_appr_svm).

First I tested a linear SVM model using the e1071 package and to calculate the 
individual results by myself I did the next things :
Retrieving the model coefficients  : coef_svm<-t(svm$coefs) %*% 
x_appr_svm[svm$index,]
Calculating the values for each line : p2<-x_appr_svm %*% t(coef_svm) - svm$rho
Using the predict function to compare : p1<-attr(predict(object=svm, 
newdata=x_appr_svm, decision.values=T), "decision.values")
--> p1 and p2 are the same.

Next I tested a polynomial SVM model using the same package and the same method 
knowing that the model parameters are :
degree=2,  gamma=0.02, coef0=0.01
The calculation of the individual values becomes (I guess) : 
p2<-(0.02*x_appr_svm %*% t(coef_svm)+0.01)^2-svm$rho
--> p1 and p2 are really different!

Despite of my searching, I do not understand why or where is the problem in my 
second p2 formula. Do you see the mistake?

Thank you for your help and have a good day, Benoit (France).
