Abstract. This paper presents a computation of the dimension for regression in bounded subspaces of Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces (RKHS) for the Support Vector Machine (SVM) regression -insensitive loss function L, and general Lp loss functions. Finiteness of the dimension is shown, which also proves uniform convergence in probability for regression machines in RKHS subspaces that use the L or general Lp loss functions. This paper presents a novel proof of this result. It also presents a computation of an upper bound of the dimension under some conditions, that leads to an approach for the estimation of the empirical dimension given a set of training data.
