Abstract

Support vector machines have established themselves as a standard data mining and machine learning tool. It is based on advances in statistical learning theory and finds a wide range of application in real-world situations like text categorization, handwritten character recognition, image classification, bio-sequences analysis, etc. The original SVM algorithm was invented by ‘Vladimir N. Vapnik’, and the current standard incarnation (soft margin) was proposed by ‘Vapnik and Corinna Cortes’ in 1995.
