      public class PolyKernel
      extends CachedKernel

  The polynomial kernel : K(x, y) = <x, y>^p or K(x, y) = (<x, y>+1)^p

  Valid options are:

       -D
        Enables debugging output (if available) to be printed.
        (default: off)

       -C <num>
        The size of the cache (a prime number), 0 for full cache and
        -1 to turn it off.
        (default: 250007)

       -E <num>
        The Exponent to use.
        (default: 1.0)

       -L
        Use lower-order terms.
        (default: no)
