In this post, I will give an introduction of Support Vector Machine classifier. This post will be a part of the series in which I will explain Support Vector Machine (SVM) including all the necessary minute details and mathematics behind it. It will be easy, believe me! Without any delay let’s begin —

Suppose we’re given these two samples of blue stars and purple hearts (just for schematic representation and no real data are used here), and our job is to find out a line that…
