Support vector machines (SVMs) are a supervised machine learning algorithm used for classification and regression analysis. SVMs find the optimal boundary, known as a hyperplane, that separates classes of data. This hyperplane maximizes the margin between the two classes. Extensions to the basic SVM model include soft margin classification to allow some misclassified points, methods for multi-class classification like one-vs-one and one-vs-all, and the use of kernel functions to handle non-linear decision boundaries. Real-world applications of SVMs include face detection, text categorization, image classification, and bioinformatics.
- Support Vector Machine (SVM) is a supervised machine learning algorithm used for both classification and regression problems, but primarily for classification.
- The goal of SVM is to find the optimal separating hyperplane that maximizes the margin between two classes of data points.
- Support vectors are the data points that are closest to the hyperplane and influence its position. SVM aims to position the hyperplane to best separate the support vectors of different classes.

This document provides an overview of support vector machines and kernel methods for machine learning.
It discusses how preprocessing input data with nonlinear features can make classification problems linearly separable in high-dimensional space. However, directly using all possible features risks overfitting.
Support vector machines find a maximum-margin separating hyperplane in feature space to minimize overfitting. They use only a subset of training points, called support vectors, to define the decision boundary.
The kernel trick allows support vector machines to implicitly operate in very high-dimensional feature spaces without explicitly computing the feature vectors. All computations can be done using kernel functions that evaluate scalar products in feature space. This makes support vector machines computationally feasible even for huge feature spaces
In this presentation, we approach a two-class classification problem. We try to find a plane that separates the class in the feature space, also called a hyperplane. If we can't find a hyperplane, then we can be creative in two ways: 1) We soften what we mean by separate, and 2) We enrich and enlarge the featured space so that separation is possible.
Support Vector Machine (SVM) is a supervised learning algorithm used for classification and regression by finding an optimal hyperplane that maximizes the margin between different classes. It identifies support vectors, which are the closest data points to the hyperplane, ensuring robustness to overfitting. When data is linearly separable, SVM finds a straight-line boundary, while for non-linear cases, it uses kernel functions (like polynomial, RBF, or sigmoid) to map data into a higher-dimensional space where it becomes separable. The optimization problem aims to minimize the norm of the weight vector while satisfying margin constraints. With advantages like effective handling of high-dimensional data and suitability for both small and large datasets, SVM is widely applied in text classification, image recognition, and bioinformatics.SVM operates by mapping input features into a high-dimensional space and constructing a decision boundary (hyperplane) that best separates different classes. The optimal hyperplane is chosen to maximize the margin, which is the distance between the closest data points (support vectors) from each class to the hyperplane.SVMs performance largely depends on the choice of kernel functions, which transform input data into a higher-dimensional space where it becomes easier to classify. Commonly used kernels include the linear kernel for simple separable data, the polynomial kernel for capturing interactions between features, and the radial basis function (RBF) kernel for complex, non-linear patterns. The regularization parameter
C controls the trade-off between maximizing the margin and minimizing classification errors, with higher values leading to lower bias but higher variance. Additionally, the soft margin approach allows some misclassification by introducing slack variables, making SVM more flexible in handling noisy data.
Despite its strengths, SVM has limitations, such as high computational cost for large datasets and difficulty in selecting the right kernel and hyperparameters. Training time increases significantly as the number of samples grows, especially for non-linear SVMs using complex kernels. Moreover, SVM does not provide direct probability estimates, requiring additional techniques like Platt scaling for probabilistic outputs. However, with proper tuning and kernel selection, SVM remains a powerful tool in various domains, including natural language processing, medical diagnosis, and financial fraud detection.
In machine learning, support-vector machines (SVMs, also support-vector networks) are supervised learning models with associated learning algorithms that analyze data for classification and regression analysis
- Support vector machines (SVMs) find a linear separator between classes that maximizes the margin between the separator and the nearest data points of each class. This maximum-margin separator generalizes better than other possible separators.
- SVMs can learn nonlinear decision boundaries by mapping data into a high-dimensional feature space and finding a linear separator in that space, which corresponds to a nonlinear separator in the original input space.
- The "kernel trick" allows SVMs to efficiently compute scalar products between points in the high-dimensional feature space without explicitly performing the mapping, making SVMs practical even with huge numbers of features.
- Support vector machines (SVMs) find a linear separator between classes that maximizes the margin between the separator and the closest data points. This maximum margin separator generalizes better than other separators.
- SVMs can handle non-linear separations by projecting data into a higher-dimensional feature space and finding a linear separator there. The kernel trick allows efficient computation without explicitly using the high-dimensional feature space.
- SVMs solve a convex optimization problem to find the maximum margin separator. Only a subset of data points called support vectors are used to define the separator and classify new data.

Support Vector Machine (SVM) is a supervised machine learning algorithm used for classification and regression analysis. It finds a hyperplane in an N-dimensional space that distinctly classifies data points. SVM is effective in high-dimensional spaces and with limited training data, and can perform nonlinear classification using kernel tricks. The objective is to find the hyperplane that has the largest distance to the nearest training data points of any class, since these are the hardest to classify correctly.

2. SVM
Support Vector Machine (SVM) is a supervised machine learning algorithm
that can be used for both classification or regression challenges.
However, it is mostly used in classification problems.
In the SVM algorithm, we plot each data item as a point in n-dimensional
space (where n is a number of features you have) with the value of each
feature being the value of a particular coordinate.
Then, we perform classification by finding the hyper-plane that
differentiates the two classes very well.
3. SVM
Imagined as a surface that maximizes the boundaries between various types
of points of data that is represent in multidimensional space, also known as a
hyperplane, which creates the most homogeneous points in each subregion.
Support vector machines can be used on any type of data, but have special
extra advantages for data types with very high dimensions relative to the
observations, for example
Text classification, in which language has the very dimensions of word
vectors
For the quality control of DNA sequencing by labeling chromatograms
correctly
4. Support vector machines working principles
Support vector machines are mainly classified into three types based
on their
working principles:
- Maximum margin classifiers
- - Support vector classifiers
- Support vector machines
5. Maximum margin classifier
People usually generalize support vector machines with maximum
margin classifiers. However, there is much more to present in SVMs
compared to maximum margin classifier.
It is feasible to draw infinite hyperplanes to classify the same set of
data upon, but the million dollar question, is which one to consider as
an ideal hyperplane?
The maximum margin classifier provides an answer to that: the
hyperplane with the maximum margin of separation width.
6. Hyperplane
Hyperplanes: Before going forward, let us quickly review what a hyperplane
is.
In n-dimensional space, a hyperplane is a flat affine subspace of dimension n-
1.
This means, in 2-dimensional space, the hyperplane is a straight line which
separates the 2-dimensional space into two halves
observations could fall in either of the regions, also called the region of
classes:
7. SVM
The mathematical representation of the maximum margin classifier is
as follows, which is an optimization problem
8. SVM
Constraint 2 ensures that observations will be on the correct side of
the hyperplane by taking the product of coefficients with x variables
and finally, with a class variable indicator
In non-separable cases, the maximum margin classifier will not have a
separating hyperplane, which is also known as no feasible solution.
This issue will be solved with support vector classifiers,
11. How does it work?
the process of segregating the two classes with a hyper-plane.
How can we identify the right hyper-plane?
12. Identify the right hyper-plane (Scenario-1):
Here, we have three hyper-planes (A, B, and C). Now, identify the right hyper-
plane to classify stars and circles.
You need to remember a thumb rule to identify the right hyper-plane: Select the
hyper-plane which segregates the two classes better. In this scenario, hyper-
plane B has excellently performed this job
13. Identify the right hyper-plane (Scenario-2)
Here, we have three hyper-planes (A, B, and C) and all are segregating the classes
well. Now, How can we identify the right hyper-plane?
Here, maximizing the distances between nearest data point (either class) and hyper-
plane will help us to decide the right hyper-plane. This distance is called as Margin
14. you can see that the margin for hyper-plane C is high as
compared to both A and B. Hence, we name the right hyper-
plane as C. Another lightning reason for selecting the hyper-
plane with higher margin is robustness. If we select a hyper-
plane having low margin then there is high chance of miss-
classification.
15. Identify the right hyper-plane (Scenario-3):
Hint: Use the rules as discussed in previous section to identify the right hyper-
plane.
Some of you may have selected the hyper-plane B as it has higher margin
compared to A. But, here is the catch, SVM selects the hyper-plane which
classifies the classes accurately prior to maximizing margin. Here, hyper-plane
B has a classification error and A has classified all correctly. Therefore,
the right hyper-plane is A.
16. Can we classify two classes (Scenario-4)?
Below, I am unable to segregate the two classes using a straight line, as
one of the stars lies in the territory of other(circle) class as an outlier
17. Find the hyper-plane to segregate to classes (Scenario-5):
In the scenario below, we cant have linear hyper-plane between the
two classes, so how does SVM classify these two classes? Till now, we
have only looked at the linear hyper-plane.
18. SVM
SVM can solve this problem. Easily! It solves this problem by
introducing additional feature. Here, we will add a new feature
z=x^2+y^2. Now, lets plot the data points on axis x and z:
19. Support vector classifier
Support vector classifiers are an extended version of maximum margin
classifiers, in which some violations are tolerated for non-separable cases in
order to create the best fit, even with slight errors within the threshold limit.
In fact, in real-life scenarios, we hardly find any data with purely separable
classes; most classes have a few or more observations in overlapping classes.
The mathematical representation of the support vector classifier is as
follows, a slight correction to the constraints to accommodate error terms.
21. Support Vector Classifier
In constraint 4, the C value is a non-negative tuning parameter to either
accommodate more or fewer overall errors in the model.
High value of C will lead to a more robust model, whereas a lower value
creates the flexible model due to less violation of error terms.
In practice the C value would be a tuning parameter as is usual with all
machine learning models.
22. Support Vector Classifier
The high value of C, the model would be more tolerating and also have
space for violations (errors) in the left diagram,
whereas with the lower value of C, no scope for accepting violations leads to
a reduction in margin width.
C is a tuning parameter in Support Vector Classifiers
23. Support vector machines
Support vector machines are used when the decision boundary is non-linear
and would not be separable with support vector classifiers whatever the
cost function is.
The following diagram explains the non-linearly separable cases for both 1-
dimension and 2-dimensions.
24. 1-Dimensional Data Transferable
we cannot classify using support vector classifiers whatever the cost value is.
Another way of handling the data, called the kernel trick, using the kernel
function to work with non-linearly separable data.
A polynomial kernel with degree 2 has been applied in transforming the data
from 1-dimensional to 2-dimensional data.
26. 1-Dimensional Data Transferable
The degree of the polynomial kernel is a tuning parameter
The practitioner needs to tune them with various values to check
where higher accuracies are possible with the model
27. 2-Dimensional Transferable
In the 2-dimensional case, the kernel trick is applied as below with the
polynomial kernel with degree 2.
It seems that observations have been classified successfully using a
linear plane after projecting the data into higher dimensions
28. Kernel Functions
Original feature vectors, return the same value as the dot product of its
corresponding mapped feature vectors.
Kernel functions do not explicitly map the feature vectors to a higher
dimensional space, or calculate the dot product of the mapped vectors.
Kernels produce the same value through a different series of operations that
can often be computed more efficiently.
REASON
To eliminate the computational requirement to derive the higher-
dimensional vector space from the given basic vector space, so that
observations be separated linearly in higher dimensions.
Derived vector space will grow exponentially with the increase in dimensions
and it will become almost too difficult to continue computation, even when
you have a variable size of 30 or so.
29. Kernel Functions
The following example shows how the size of the variables grows.
30. (A) Polynomial Kernel:
Polynomial kernels are popularly used, especially with degree 2.
In fact, the inventor of support vector machines
Vladimir N Vapnik, developed using a degree 2 kernel for classifying
handwritten digits.
Polynomial kernels are given by the following equation:
31. (B) Radial Basis Function (RBF) / Gaussian Kernel:
RBF kernels are a good first choice for problems requiring nonlinear models.
A decision boundary that is a hyperplane in the mapped feature space is
similar to a decision boundary that is a hypersphere in the original space.
The feature space produced by the Gaussian kernel can have an infinite
number of dimensions, a feat that would be impossible otherwise.

derived from a replica of the biological brain, which responds to stimuli from its
sensory inputs.
ANN methods try to model problems using interconnected artificial neurons (or
nodes) to solve machine learning problems.
Incoming signals are received by the cell's dendrites through a biochemical process
that allows the impulses to be weighted according to their relative importance.
The cell body begins to accumulate the incoming signals, a threshold is reached, at
which the cell fires and the output signal is then transmitted via an electrochemical
process down the axon
34. Artificial Neural Networks (ANN)
At the axon terminal, an electric signal is again processed as a chemical signal
to be passed to its neighboring neurons, which will be dendrites to some
other neuron.
A similar working principle is loosely used in building an artificial neural
network, in which each neuron has a set of inputs, each of which is given a
specific weight.
The neuron computes a function on these weighted inputs.
A linear neuron takes a linear combination of weighted input and applies an
activation function (sigmoid, tanh, relu, and so on) on the aggregated sum.
The details are shown in the following diagram.
35. Artificial Neural Networks (ANN)
The network feeds the weighted sum of the input into the logistic function
(in case of sigmoid function).
The logistic function returns a value between 0 and 1 based on the set
threshold.
for example, here we set the threshold as 0.7.
Any accumulated signal greater than 0.7 gives the signal of 1 and vice
versa; any accumulated signal less than 0.7 returns the value of 0:
37. Neural Network Model
Neural network models are being considered as universal approximators,
which means by using a neural network methodology.
we can solve any type of problems with the fine-tuned architecture.
Hence, studying neural networks is a branch of study and special care is
needed.
In fact, deep learning is a branch of machine learning, where every problem
is being modeled with artificial neural networks
38. Artificial Neural Network Model
A typical artificial neuron with n input dendrites can be represented
by the following formula.
w weights allow each of the n inputs of x to contribute a greater or
lesser amount to the sum of input signals.
The accumulated value is passed to the activation function, f(x), and
the resulting signal, y(x), is the output axon
39. Parameters- Building neural networks
Activation function:
Choosing an activation function plays a major role in aggregating
signals into the output signal to be propagated to the other neurons of the
network.
Network architecture or topology:
This represents the number of layers required and the number of
neurons in each layer. More layers and neurons will create a highly non-linear
decision boundary, whereas if we reduce the architecture, the model will be
less flexible and more robust.
Training optimization algorithm:
The selection of an optimization algorithm plays a critical role as well, in
order to converge quickly and accurately to the best optimal solutions

huge attention in terms of its application in artificial intelligence, in terms of speech,
text, vision, and many other areas.

42. Forward and Backward Propogation-Intro
Forward propagation and backpropagation are illustrated with the two
hidden layer deep neural networks in the following example, in which both
layers get three neurons each, in addition to input and output layers.
The number of neurons in the input layer is based on the number of x
(independent) variables, whereas the number of neurons in the output layer
is decided by the number of classes the model needs to be predicted.
Only one neuron in each layer; however, the reader can attempt to create
other neurons within the same layer. Weights and biases are initiated from
some random numbers, so that in both forward and backward passes, these
can be updated in order to minimize the errors altogether.
43. Forward and Backward Propagation-Intro
During forward propagation, features are input to the network and fed
through the following layers to produce the output activation.
If we see in the hidden layer 1, the activation obtained is the combination of
bias weight 1 and weighted combination of input values; if the overall value
crosses the threshold, it will trigger to the next layer, else the signal will be 0
to the next layer values.
Bias values are necessary to control the trigger points.
In some cases, the weighted combination signal is low; in those cases, bias
will compensate the extra amount for adjusting the aggregated value, which
can trigger for the next level.
45. Forward and Backward Propagation-Intro
1. In the last layer (also known as the output layer), outputs are calculated in
the same way from the outputs obtained from hidden layer 2 by taking the
weighted combination of weights and outputs obtained from hidden layer
2.
Once we obtain the output from the model, a comparison needs to be made
with the actual value and we need to backpropagate the errors across the
net backward in order to correct the weights of the entire neural network
48. Forward and Backward Propagation
we have taken the derivative of the output value and multiplied by
that much amount to the error component, which was obtained from
differencing the actual value with the model output
50. Forward and Backward Propagation
we will backpropagate the error from the second hidden layer as well.
In the following diagram, errors are computed from the Hidden 4
neuron in the second hidden layer
53. Forward and Backward Propagation
Once all the neurons in hidden layer 1 are updated, weights between
inputs and the hidden layer also need to be updated, as we cannot
update anything on input variables.
we will be updating the weights of both the inputs and also, at the
same time, the neurons in hidden layer 1, as neurons in layer 1 utilize
the weights from input only
56. Forward and Backward Propagation
We have not shown the next iteration, in which neurons in the output layer
are updated with errors and backpropagation started again.
In a similar way, all the weights get updated until a solution converges or the
number of iterations is reached.
57. Optimization of neural networks
Various techniques have been used for optimizing the weights of neural
networks:
Stochastic gradient descent (SGD)
Momentum
Nesterov accelerated gradient (NAG)
Adaptive gradient (Adagrad)
Adadelta
RMSprop
Adaptive moment estimation (Adam)
Limited memory Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (L-BFGS)
58. Optimization of neural networks
Adam is a good default choice; we will be covering its working
methodology in this section. If you cannot afford full batch updates, then
try out L-BFGS:
59. Stochastic gradient descent- SGD
Gradient descent is a way to minimize an objective function J(慮)
parameterized by a model's parameter 慮 竜 Rd by updating the
parameters in the opposite direction of the gradient of the objective
function with regard to the parameters.
The learning rate determines the size of the steps taken to reach the
minimum.
Batch gradient descent (all training observations utilized in each
iteration)
SGD (one observation per iteration)
Mini batch gradient descent (size of about 50 training observations for
each iteration)
