Pintle Pintle A pintle is a pin or bolt, usually inserted into a gudgeon, which is used as part of a pivot or hinge. Other applications include pintle and lunette ring for towing, and pintle pins securing casters in furniture. Pintle/gudgeon sets have many applications, for example: in sailing to hold the rudder onto the boat; in transportation a pincer-type device clamps through a lunette ring on the tongue of a trailer; in controllable solid rocket motors a plug moves into and out of the motor throat to control thrust. In electrical cubicle manufacture, a pintle hinge is a hinge with
Hinge loss given by However, since the derivative of the hinge loss at formula_17 is undefined, smoothed versions may be preferred for optimization, such as Rennie and Srebro's or the quadratically smoothed suggested by Zhang. The modified Huber loss formula_20 is a special case of this loss function with formula_21, specifically formula_22. Hinge loss In machine learning, the hinge loss is a loss function used for training classifiers. The hinge loss is used for "maximum-margin" classification, most notably for support vector machines (SVMs). For an intended output and a classifier score , the hinge loss of the prediction is defined as Note
