Kernel Trick

What is Kernel Trick?

The kernel trick allows linear classifiers like SVMs to solve non-linear problems by implicitly mapping data into a higher-dimensional space without computing the coordinates.

Where did the term "Kernel Trick" come from?

Mathematical breakthrough for non-linear classification.

How is "Kernel Trick" used today?

Makes SVMs highly versatile for complex boundaries.
