Kernel methods owe their name to the use of kernel functions, which enable them to operate in a high-dimensional, implicit feature space without ever computing the coordinates of the data in that space, but rather by simply computing the inner products between the images of all pairs of data in the feature space. This operation is often ...
To avoid solving a linear system involving the large kernel matrix, a low-rank approximation to the matrix is often used in the kernel trick. Another common method is Platt's sequential minimal optimization (SMO) algorithm, which breaks the problem down into 2-dimensional sub-problems that are solved analytically, eliminating the need for a ...
The Mathematical principles should be in the Kernel Models page. my 2 cents. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.21.11.140 01:55, 5 June 2013 (UTC) I like the tone of the article. It offers a direct statement of what the "Kernel Trick" is in a way that is easy to grasp.
Kernel (linear algebra) or null space, a set of vectors mapped to the zero vector; Kernel (category theory), a generalization of the kernel of a homomorphism; Kernel (set theory), an equivalence relation: partition by image under a function; Difference kernel, a binary equalizer: the kernel of the difference of two functions
In machine learning, feature hashing, also known as the hashing trick (by analogy to the kernel trick), is a fast and space-efficient way of vectorizing features, i.e. turning arbitrary features into indices in a vector or matrix.
Because support vector machines and other models employing the kernel trick do not scale well to large numbers of training samples or large numbers of features in the input space, several approximations to the RBF kernel (and similar kernels) have been introduced. [4]
Output after kernel PCA, with a Gaussian kernel. Note in particular that the first principal component is enough to distinguish the three different groups, which is impossible using only linear PCA, because linear PCA operates only in the given (in this case two-dimensional) space, in which these concentric point clouds are not linearly separable.
For degree-d polynomials, the polynomial kernel is defined as [2](,) = (+)where x and y are vectors of size n in the input space, i.e. vectors of features computed from training or test samples and c ≥ 0 is a free parameter trading off the influence of higher-order versus lower-order terms in the polynomial.
