This is the famous webdata dataset w[1-8]a in its binary version, retrieved 2014-11-14 from the libSVM site. Additional to the preprocessing done there (see LibSVM site for details), this dataset was created as follows:
* load all web data datasets, train and test, e.g. w1a, w1a.t, w2a, w2a.t, w3a, ...
* join test and train for each subset, e.g. w1a and w1a.t, w2a and w2a.t
* normalize each file columnwise according to the following rules:
* If a column only contains one value (constant feature), it will set to zero and thus removed by sparsity.
* If a column contains two values (binary feature), the value occuring more often will be set to zero, the other to one.
* If a column contains more than two values (multinary/real feature), the column is divided by its std deviation.
* afterwards all these 8 files are merged into one, and randomly sorted.
* duplicate lines were finally removed.
An R script which does all of these steps can be found here:
