Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which kernel is commonly used in SVM for non-linear data?
  • Step 1: Understand what SVM (Support Vector Machine) is. It is a type of machine learning algorithm used for classification and regression tasks.
  • Step 2: Know that SVM can work with both linear and non-linear data.
  • Step 3: Realize that non-linear data cannot be separated by a straight line.
  • Step 4: Learn that to handle non-linear data, SVM uses something called a 'kernel'.
  • Step 5: Identify the Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel as a popular choice for non-linear data.
  • Step 6: Understand that the RBF kernel helps to transform the data into a higher dimension where it can be separated more easily.
