prtKernel
  prtKernel  Base class for prtKernel objects.
 
    prtKernel is the base class for all prtKernel objects. It is an
    abstract class and should not be instantiated. All prtKernel
    objects implement the following methods:
 
    kernel = kernel.train(dataSet) Train the kernel using the specified
    dataSet.  This builds a trained kernel object that can be run.
 
    yOut = kernel.run(dataSet) Run a trained kernel object on the data
    in dataSet and output the resulting gram matrix in
    yOut.getObservations.
 
    kernel = and(kernel1,kernel2) Combine two kernels into a
    prtKernelSet (also a prtKernel).  This is used to join multiple
    kernels together.  Unlike the plus operation for combining
    prtActions, the AND operation trains and runs each kernel
    individually on the provided data.
 
    Note, cross validation is not a valid operation on prtKernel
    objects, and therefore the CROSSVALIDATE and KFOLDS operations are
    not implemented.
 
    % Example syntax of the AND method:
 
    kernels = prtKernelDc & prtKernelRbf; % kernels is prtKernelSet
