    After discussing with, we decided that one parameter determining the value 
of the threshold _and_ whether we output the thresholded values or not is 
ambiguous.
    
    What we will do instead is provide another parameter that determines 
whether the prediction output will be thresholded or not, and the Threshold 
parameter only does one thing, determine the value of that threshold.

> Currently SVM outputs the raw decision function values when using the predict 
> function.
> We should have instead the ability to set a threshold above which examples 
> are labeled as positive (1.0) and below negative (-1.0). Then the prediction 
> function can be directly used for evaluation.
