Course Description

This course introduces the powerful classifier, the support vector machine (SVM), through an intuitive and visual approach. Students will learn how support vector machines work in R. They'll also get to use the e1071 program R libsvm. Students will be able to understand concepts like hard and flexible margins, kernel tricks and different types of kernels. They also learn how to tune SVM parameters. This model allows you to classify data.
