Hi, I am studying using SVM functions of e1071 package to do prediction, and I found during the training data are "factor" type, then svm.predict() can predict data directly by categories; but if response variables are "numerical", the predicted value from svm will be continuous quantitative numbers, then how can I connect these quantitative numbers to categories? (for example:in an example data set, the response variables are numerical and have two categories: 0 and 1, and the predicted value are continuous quantitative numbers from 0 to 1.3, how can I know which of them represent category 0 and which represent 1?)
