Machine Learning Crash Course: Part 2 · ML@B

This algorithm forms the basis for many modern day ML algorithms, most notably neural networks. In addition, we'll discuss the perceptron algorithm's cousin, logistic regression. And then we'll conclude with an introduction to SVMs, or support vector machines, which are perhaps one of the most flexible algorithms used today. In machine learning, there are two general classes of algorithms. You'll remember that in our last post we discussed regression and classification.
