Support Vector Machines Part 2: The Polynomial Kernel (Part 2 of 3)

Video Description

Support Vector Machines use kernel functions to do all the hard work and this StatQuest dives deep into one of the most popular: The Polynomial Kernel. We talk about the parameter values and how they calculate high-dimensional coordinates via the dot-product and high-dimensional relationships NOTE: This StatQuest assumes you already know about...
