ADVICE

Choosing the Right Algorithm

  • Evaluate your data, system memory, and processing constraints before selecting an algorithm.
  • Implement and test multiple classifiers, then choose the best-performing model based on evaluation metrics.

Support Vector Machine Margin

  • Support Vector Machines build a decision boundary with maximum margin to reduce overfitting.
  • The margin is the thickness of this boundary, and the closest data points that define it are called support vectors.

Kernel Trick for Non-Linearity

  • The kernel trick transforms data into higher dimensions to make it linearly separable.
  • This lets Support Vector Machines handle non-linear classification effectively.
