What is Support Vector Machines?
Support vector machines classify by finding the maximum-margin hyperplane separating classes, using kernels to handle non-linear boundaries. They remain a strong choice on small, high-dimensional datasets and as a lightweight classification head on top of learned features.
Where Support Vector Machines is used
Common wherever samples number in the hundreds rather than millions — clinical studies, spectroscopy, materials classification and hyperspectral analysis, where deep learning simply overfits.

Support Vector Machines jobs — common questions
Are SVMs still worth knowing?
Yes, though rarely as the headline skill. They are the right tool for small-sample problems, a sensible baseline before reaching for a network, and they appear constantly as a classifier on top of pre-trained embeddings.
What is the kernel trick?
Computing inner products in a high-dimensional feature space without ever constructing that space explicitly, which lets a linear algorithm learn non-linear boundaries cheaply. RBF and polynomial kernels are the usual choices.
Where do SVMs beat neural networks?
Small datasets, high-dimensional features, and situations demanding well-understood generalisation behaviour. Hyperspectral classification with a few hundred labelled pixels is a classic example.
