[BioC] How to do k-fold validation using SVM

You might want to use the function svm() in the e1071 library with the
option 'cross'.

Or you can manually break the dataset into k subsets and write a loop.
This might be better if you prefer to do stratified sampling for the
fold rather than random sampling.

Did anyone know how to do the k-fold validation on the training data set
by SVM?

Thanks.
