About Support Vector Machines Succinctly

While I was working on my series of articles about the mathematics behind SVMs, I have been contacted by Syncfusion to write an ebook in their “Succinctly” e-book series. The goal is to cover a particular subject in about 100 pages. I gladly accepted the proposition and started working on the book.

Almost six years ago, on October 11, 2014, I published my first article about Support Vector Machines. It was a short article describing how to classify text in C#. My original goal was to create a blog containing a series of tutorials about Support Vector Machines, hence the name of the site: svm-tutorial.

As I started using this machine learning algorithm, something bothered me. I felt like I could not find any “simple” explanation of the topic. Of course, there were already some resources online, but most of them were talking to a reader with deep mathematical knowledge. It became my goal to explain support vector machines in an approachable way so that anyone who takes the time to read about them can understand them.
