The Kernel Trick in Support Vector Classification

<p>The kernel trick seems to be one of the most confusing concepts in statistics and machine learning; it first appears to be genuine mathematical sorcery, not to mention the problem of lexical ambiguity (does kernel refer to: a non-parametric way to estimate a probability density (statistics), the set of vectors&nbsp;<strong>v&nbsp;</strong>for which a linear transformation T maps to the zero vector &mdash; i.e. T(<strong>v</strong>) = 0 (linear algebra), the set of elements in a group G that are mapped to the identity element by a homomorphism between groups (group theory), the core of a computer operating system (computer science), or something to do with the seeds of nuts or fruit?).</p> <p><a href="https://towardsdatascience.com/the-kernel-trick-c98cdbcaeb3f"><strong>Visit Now</strong></a></p>
