A Trick That Transforms a Support Vector Machine Into a Non Linear Classifier
Support vector machines only hand a linear classification. So does logistic regression. Now, you can throw some polynomials into the function and make the situation non linear, but that's a little bit less than ideal. But there's a a trick that can transform a support vector machine into a non linear classifier. And this trick is called the kernel trick. You will see keronels used quite commonly in machine learning. They're very weird. I still haven't quite wrapped my head around them,. What i think of is a kelnel, it teleports you into another dimension. Or these rose colored goggles that you put on and they change the way everything looks.
