Exploring the math in Support Vector Machines

Free Registration: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/exploring-the-math-in-support-vector-machines-tickets-425130124647 Synopsis: “SVMs are a rare example of a methodology where geometric intuition, elegant mathematics, theoretical guarantees, and practical algorithms meet” – Bennet and Campbell Support Vector Machines (SVMs) are used for supervised machine learning and have been successful in many applications including those like image classification that favor deep learning. SVM owes its power to the intriguing math involved in its fabrication. This talk will introduce SVM and cover some of that math. Topics covered will include constrained and unconstrained optimization, convexity, the general notion of a function space, minmax equilibrium, duality, Cover theorem, Kernels, and Mercer theorem.
