            WHAT THIS OBJECT REPRESENTS 
                This object represents a classification or regression function that was 
                learned by a kernel based learning algorithm.   Therefore, it is a function 
                object that takes a sample object and returns a scalar value.

            THREAD SAFETY
                It is always safe to use distinct instances of this object in different
                threads.  However, when a single instance is shared between threads then
                the following rules apply:
                    It is safe to call operator() on this object from multiple threads so
                    long as the kernel, K, is also threadsafe.  This is because operator()
                    is a read-only operation.  However, any operation that modifies a
                    decision_function is not threadsafe.

                Specifically, if O() is the feature mapping associated with
                the kernel used by this object.  Then this object represents
                the point:
