Polynomial Kernals

Polynomial Kernals are used when the points do not line up in a linear way.

Radial Bias Function Kernal (rbf) is the most commonly used kernal in Support Vector Machines. It is the default for scikit-learn’s SVC. The rbf kernal transforms the data into infinite dimensions.

• classifier = svc(kernal = “rbf”, gamma= 0.5, c=2)
  The higher the gamma, the more likely to overfit.
