Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What is the main goal of SVM?

  • To minimize margin
  • To maximize margin
  • To eliminate all outliers

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how boundaries should be drawn.

Question 2

True or False: The kernel trick allows SVM to operate in a higher-dimensional space without explicitly calculating it.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how data can be processed.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Suppose you have an imbalanced dataset where one class is significantly larger than the other. How might you adjust the SVM to account for this imbalance?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how SVM prioritizes its decisions.

Question 2

When should you choose a polynomial kernel over an RBF kernel, and why in practical terms might this choice matter?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about data complexity and computational cost.
