  • Completion of Introduction to ANN and Supervised Learning (or equivalent)
  • Basic linear algebra (kernel methods, dot products)
  • Familiarity with scikit-learn

Overview

Explores Support Vector Machines and Radial Basis Function Networks — their theoretical foundations and practical applications in classification and pattern recognition. Students implement SVM for image classification and build a face recognition system using RBF networks.
